Insufficient validation of untrusted input in WebNN in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 149.0.7827.53 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on Windows before 149.0.7827.53 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page that abuses the WebNN (Web Neural Network) API. The flaw stems from insufficient validation of untrusted input (CWE-20) reaching the WebNN component, and exploitation requires user interaction (visiting an attacker-controlled page) plus a prior renderer-compromise primitive. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS probability is very low (0.04%).
Technical ContextAI
WebNN is Chrome's emerging Web Neural Network API that exposes machine-learning acceleration primitives to web content, with portions of its implementation running across renderer and browser/GPU process boundaries on Windows. Because WebNN-related IPC messages traverse a sandbox boundary, any privileged process handling them must rigorously validate parameters originating from the less-trusted renderer. The root cause class is CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation): a more-privileged Chrome process accepted attacker-controlled data from the renderer without sufficient checks, enabling code or memory state to influence a process running outside the renderer sandbox. The affected component is Chromium's WebNN subsystem as shipped in desktop Chrome on Windows, prior to the 149.0.7827.53 stable build.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.53 (stable channel) on Windows - update all Chrome installs to this version or later via the built-in updater or managed deployment, as documented in the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html. For fleets that cannot patch immediately, reduce exposure by disabling or blocking the WebNN feature where supported (e.g., via the WebNN/WebNNDeveloper enterprise/feature flags or Chrome enterprise policy controls), accepting the trade-off that web apps relying on on-device ML acceleration will fall back to slower paths or fail; additionally, restrict browsing of untrusted sites and ensure the Windows host renderer sandbox and Win32k lockdown mitigations remain enabled, since this bug is only reachable after a separate renderer compromise. Verify update status across Chromium-based variants that pull from the same engine, but note this advisory specifically names Google Chrome on Windows.
