DescriptionCVE.org

Inappropriate implementation in DeviceBoundSessionCredentials in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.197 allowed a remote attacker to bypass same origin policy via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Same-origin policy bypass in Google Chrome's DeviceBoundSessionCredentials (DBSC) feature affects all Chrome versions prior to 149.0.7827.197, allowing a remote attacker to read limited cross-origin data via a crafted HTML page. The flaw stems from incorrect origin validation (CWE-346) in the DBSC implementation, a relatively new anti-session-hijacking subsystem. SSVC assessment confirms no exploitation at time of analysis, and no public exploit code has been identified; the CVSS score of 4.3 Medium reflects meaningful but bounded confidentiality impact contingent on user interaction.

Technical ContextAI

DeviceBoundSessionCredentials (DBSC) is a Chrome feature designed to cryptographically bind session tokens to a specific device, mitigating session cookie theft. CWE-346 (Origin Validation Error) indicates the root cause is an improper check of the origin associated with a session credential request or response, which undermines the same-origin policy that isolates cross-site resources. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covering all platform variants of Chrome prior to version 149.0.7827.197. Because DBSC is a newer browser-level security layer, inappropriate implementation can create a trust boundary gap that a crafted HTML page can exploit to influence or observe credential-bound session behavior across origins.

RemediationAI

The primary fix is to update Google Chrome to version 149.0.7827.197 or later, which contains the corrected DeviceBoundSessionCredentials implementation. The vendor-released stable channel advisory is at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0482630350.html and the upstream issue tracker reference is https://issues.chromium.org/issues/511776603. For enterprise environments where immediate patching is delayed, a compensating control is to restrict Chrome's use of the DBSC feature via enterprise policy if such a toggle is available in managed Chrome deployments - note that disabling DBSC removes its session-binding security benefit, which is a meaningful trade-off in high-value environments. No workaround eliminates the SOP bypass without patching; user education to avoid untrusted pages is not a reliable mitigation.
