Use after free in Views in Google Chrome on Linux prior to 149.0.7827.103 allowed an attacker who convinced a user to install a malicious extension to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Chrome Extension. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
AnalysisAI
Use-after-free in the Views component of Google Chrome on Linux prior to 149.0.7827.103 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into installing a crafted malicious extension. Chromium rates the underlying flaw Critical, though the NVD CVSS score of 7.5 reflects the high attack complexity and required user interaction. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The victim must be running Google Chrome on Linux at a version below 149.0.7827.103, and the attacker must convince that user to install a specifically crafted malicious Chrome Extension - this user-interaction requirement (UI:R) is the primary limiter. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H yields 7.5 (High), driven down from Critical by AC:H (high complexity - likely heap-grooming required for reliable UAF exploitation) and UI:R (the victim must actively install the malicious extension). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker publishes a Chrome extension that appears benign (e.g., a productivity or theme extension) and drives a user - via phishing, social engineering, or a typosquatted listing - to install it on a Linux Chrome build older than 149.0.7827.103. Once active, the extension issues a sequence of UI/state operations that trigger the Views use-after-free, grooms the heap, and pivots the dangling pointer into arbitrary code execution in the Chrome process context. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.103 for Linux - update all Linux desktops to this stable-channel build or later via the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0153744567.html, restarting the browser to apply. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
24 hours: Notify all users to update Google Chrome to version 149.0.7827.103 or later; verify auto-update is enabled organization-wide. …
