AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Adjacent remoting traffic (AV:A) needs no auth or interaction (PR:N/UI:N/AC:L), and use-after-free RCE yields total confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires the target to be running Google Chrome on Linux below 150.0.7871.47 with the Chromoting / Chrome Remote Desktop component in use or reachable, and the attacker must be on an adjacent network (CVSS AV:A) - able to deliver malicious remoting traffic to the victim, e.g., as a session peer or on the same L2 segment - rather than exploiting it from the open internet. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals are mixed and point to a real-but-not-yet-urgent priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker positioned on the same network segment as a target, or acting as a malicious peer in a Chrome Remote Desktop session, sends a crafted sequence of remoting network packets that triggers the use-after-free in Chromoting on the victim's Linux Chrome client. By grooming the heap so the freed object is reallocated with controlled data, the attacker achieves arbitrary code execution in the browser process. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 150.0.7871.47 - upgrade Google Chrome on Linux to 150.0.7871.47 or later, per the Chrome Stable channel advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html); on most deployments this happens automatically via Chrome's updater, so verify the effective version at chrome://settings/help and restart the browser to apply. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
