AnalysisAI
Code execution outside the Chrome sandbox on Windows is possible through CVE-2026-106186, an uncontrolled search path flaw in Chrome's CredentialProvider component affecting Chrome builds prior to 155.0.8059.39. The issue is local-only (CVSS:3.1/AV:L) and requires both a pre-existing local foothold with write access to a directory the component searches and user interaction to load the affected program, yet because the credential provider loads in a more privileged Windows context the scope changes (S:C) and confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts are all High, yielding a base score of 8.6 with no privileges required (PR:N). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the attacker already have local access to the Windows host to drop a malicious binary into a directory that Chrome's CredentialProvider searches (CWE-427 uncontrolled search path), AND that the victim then launch the affected program (UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals conflict sharply and net out to a moderate-at-most real-world priority despite the high CVSS. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 155.0.8059.39 - update Google Chrome on Windows to 155.0.8059.39 or later via the built-in updater or the Stable Channel Update for Desktop (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/10/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_086471744.html), then fully terminate and relaunch all Chrome processes, including background/extension processes, so the corrected CredentialProvider registration and any associated binaries are actually swapped in; confirm the running build at chrome://version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
