Integer overflow in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.53 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Google Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine prior to version 149.0.7827.53 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code within the renderer sandbox by luring a victim to a crafted HTML page. Google has rated the issue High severity and shipped a stable-channel patch; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the bug tracker entry remains access-restricted per Chromium's standard disclosure practice.
Technical ContextAI
V8 is the open-source JavaScript and WebAssembly engine that powers Chrome and Chromium-derived browsers (Edge, Opera, Brave, Electron apps). The flaw is classified as CWE-472 (External Control of Assumed-Immutable Web Parameter), but the description specifically identifies an integer overflow - a numeric value exceeding the range of its declared type - within V8's processing of attacker-controlled JavaScript. Integer overflows in V8 typically corrupt internal length, offset, or type fields used by JIT-compiled code or built-in objects, enabling out-of-bounds memory access that can be escalated to arbitrary read/write and ultimately code execution inside the renderer process. Per the vendor wording, execution remains 'inside a sandbox,' meaning a separate sandbox-escape vulnerability would be required to reach the host OS.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.53 - update the stable channel via the built-in updater or by relaunching Chrome from chrome://settings/help, and confirm rollout via Google Admin Console or your endpoint management platform; details are in the Chrome Releases advisory at http://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html and NVD entry https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-10963. For Chromium-derived browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi) and Electron applications, apply the corresponding downstream build that incorporates the fixed V8. As a temporary compensating control where patching is delayed, disable the V8 JIT optimizer via the --js-flags="--jitless" command-line flag or the SitePerProcess/JavaScriptJitAllowedForSites enterprise policies, which significantly reduces the attack surface of V8 memory-corruption bugs at the cost of substantial JavaScript performance degradation; alternatively, restrict browsing to trusted sites via enterprise URL allowlists until the update is deployed.
