Remote crafted page needs no privileges but requires the user to visit it (UI:R); renderer memory-corruption RCE gives high C/I/A within an unchanged sandbox scope.

DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Skia in Google Chrome on Android prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Sandboxed remote code execution in Google Chrome for Android before 150.0.7871.47, stemming from a use-after-free in the Skia graphics library, lets a remote attacker run arbitrary code within the renderer sandbox by luring a victim to a crafted HTML page. Google rated the Chromium security severity as Medium, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; the EPSS score is low (0.26%, 17th percentile), and the bug is not on CISA KEV. Exploitation requires user interaction (visiting the malicious page) but no authentication.

Technical ContextAI

The flaw lives in Skia, Chromium's open-source 2D graphics rendering engine that backs canvas, SVG, and general page compositing on Android. The root cause is CWE-416 (Use After Free): Skia continues to reference a heap object after it has been freed, allowing an attacker who controls rendering input to reclaim that memory and steer execution. Per the EUVD/NVD CPE data the affected component is Google Chrome for Android at versions below 150.0.7871.47; because Skia executes inside the renderer process, successful exploitation yields code execution constrained to the Chromium sandbox (CVSS scope Unchanged, S:U) rather than full host compromise absent a separate sandbox-escape bug.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome for Android to 150.0.7871.47 or later via the Google Play Store or Chrome's built-in updater, then relaunch the browser to complete the update; this is the primary and sufficient fix (see https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html). In managed environments, push the update through mobile device management to enforce the minimum version. As an interim compensating control before patching, avoid opening untrusted links and restrict high-risk browsing; note that fully disabling GPU/graphics acceleration is not reliably exposed on Android Chrome and would not cleanly remove Skia's software rendering path, so it is not a dependable workaround - prioritize the version upgrade instead.
