Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The victim must be running Google Chrome desktop at a version earlier than 149.0.7827.103 and must be induced to load attacker-controlled HTML content (UI:R in the CVSS vector), which can be delivered via direct navigation, an iframe on a compromised legitimate site, or a malicious advertisement. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Signals are mixed but lean toward genuine priority for end-user fleets: CVSS 9.6 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects network reachability, no privileges, and a scope-changing impact, tempered only by the UI:R requirement of a user visiting an attacker-controlled page - a low bar in browser exploitation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker hosts a malicious web page containing JavaScript or HTML that triggers the use-after-free condition in Chrome's Network stack, then lures a target via phishing, malvertising, or a watering-hole compromise to load it in an unpatched Chrome instance. When the victim visits the page, the dangling pointer is exercised, giving the attacker arbitrary code execution within the sandboxed Chrome process - typically a stepping stone to be chained with a sandbox escape for full host compromise. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.103 - update via the Stable channel update for desktop announced at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0153744567.html, then restart the browser to load the patched binary. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
