Out of bounds read in SurfaceCapture in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)
AnalysisAI
Out-of-bounds memory read in the SurfaceCapture component of Google Chrome before 150.0.7871.47 lets a remote attacker leak adjacent heap memory when a victim opens a crafted HTML page. Chromium rated the flaw Medium severity, though the associated CVSS is 8.1; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS estimates exploitation probability at just 0.17% (7th percentile), consistent with a browser bug fixed pre-disclosure. Successful exploitation could disclose sensitive in-process data or crash the renderer, and typically serves as one link in a larger sandbox-escape chain rather than standalone compromise.
Technical ContextAI
The defect is a CWE-125 out-of-bounds read within SurfaceCapture, the Chromium subsystem responsible for capturing rendered surfaces/frames (used by screen-capture, tab-capture, and compositor readback paths). When processing attacker-influenced dimensions or buffer offsets derived from a malicious page, the code reads beyond the bounds of an allocated buffer, returning memory that lies outside the intended region. Because this executes in the browser/renderer process handling untrusted web content, leaked bytes may include pointers or other process state useful for defeating ASLR. The affected product per EUVD/NVD is the Chrome desktop stable channel (cpe: Google Chrome) at all versions prior to 150.0.7871.47.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome to 150.0.7871.47 or later via the built-in updater (chrome://settings/help) and relaunch the browser; managed fleets should push the update through their enterprise deployment channel per the Chrome Releases advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html). Users of Chromium-based browsers should install the vendor build that incorporates the fixed Chromium base. As an interim compensating control before patching, restrict exposure to untrusted sites (enterprise browsing policies/allowlists) and, where feasible for high-risk users, disable or restrict screen/tab-capture and WebRTC capture APIs via enterprise policy - with the trade-off that legitimate screen-sharing and conferencing features will stop working. There is no need for network-level workarounds since the fix is a straightforward client update.
