Use after free in Autofill in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 149.0.7827.103 allowed a remote attacker who convinced a user to engage in specific UI gestures to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
AnalysisAI
Heap corruption in Google Chrome's Autofill component on Windows versions prior to 149.0.7827.103 allows remote attackers to potentially achieve code execution by luring users to a malicious HTML page and convincing them to perform specific UI interactions. Chromium rates the underlying flaw as Critical severity, though CVSS scores it 7.5 due to required user interaction and high attack complexity. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is a use-after-free (CWE-416) in the Autofill component of Google Chrome on Windows. Autofill is the browser subsystem that suggests and fills saved form data (addresses, payment info, credentials) into web page input fields. A use-after-free occurs when memory is freed but a dangling pointer to it is subsequently dereferenced; in a renderer process this can be steered into heap corruption and, with a suitable exploitation primitive, into arbitrary code execution within the renderer sandbox. Chrome's tagged renderer-process model and site isolation constrain immediate impact, but renderer RCE is historically a stepping stone toward sandbox escape chains.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.103 for Windows; update via Chrome's built-in updater (chrome://settings/help) or by deploying the patched MSI through enterprise channels, then restart all browser processes to ensure the fix is loaded. Enterprise administrators should verify managed Chrome installs pick up the new version per the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0153744567.html and confirm extended-stable / LTS channels are also updated. If patching cannot be performed immediately, the most targeted compensating control is disabling Autofill features under chrome://settings/autofill (addresses, payment methods, passwords) via policy (AutofillAddressEnabled, AutofillCreditCardEnabled set to false), which removes the vulnerable code path's typical trigger surface at the cost of user productivity; users of downstream Chromium browsers should monitor their respective vendors for the merged fix.
