DescriptionNVD

Type Confusion in Dawn in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape via type confusion in Google Chrome's Dawn WebGPU implementation allows an attacker who already controls a compromised renderer process to break out of the browser sandbox using a crafted HTML page, affecting all Chrome desktop builds prior to 150.0.7871.47. Rated Critical by Chromium and CVSS 9.8, though the score assumes no prior privilege; realistically it is the second stage of an exploit chain. A vendor patch is available and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis (EPSS 0.24%, 15th percentile).

Technical ContextAI

Dawn is Chromium's open-source implementation of the WebGPU standard, providing web pages with lower-level access to GPU hardware for rendering and compute. It runs partly in the GPU/renderer boundary and processes attacker-influenced graphics command streams. The root cause is CWE-843 (Type Confusion): code interprets a memory object as one type when it is actually another, allowing out-of-bounds or type-inconsistent memory operations. In the context of Dawn, malformed WebGPU calls from a compromised renderer can coerce the GPU-side code into mishandling object types, yielding memory corruption primitives that can be leveraged to escape the sandbox. The single affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome, i.e. the Chrome desktop application itself.

RemediationAI

Update to Google Chrome 150.0.7871.47 or later on all desktop platforms - Vendor-released patch: 150.0.7871.47, per the Chrome Stable channel advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html). Because Chrome auto-updates, ensure clients actually restart to apply the update and confirm the running version via chrome://settings/help; in managed fleets push the update through your endpoint/patch management to close the window quickly. As an interim compensating control before patching, WebGPU can be disabled to remove the vulnerable Dawn attack surface - for example via enterprise policy or by disabling the relevant chrome://flags/#enable-unsafe-webgpu and WebGPU features - which blocks this vector at the cost of breaking pages that legitimately rely on GPU compute/rendering. General renderer-hardening (site isolation, restricting untrusted browsing) reduces but does not eliminate risk since this bug is triggered from an already-compromised renderer.
