Requires a pre-compromised renderer (PR:H) and successful exploit chaining (AC:H); sandbox escape crosses into the browser process (S:C) yielding high confidentiality/integrity impact but no availability effect.

DescriptionCVE.org

Insufficient validation of untrusted input in New Tab Page 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: Low)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape in Google Chrome's New Tab Page prior to 150.0.7871.47 allows an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. The flaw stems from insufficient validation of untrusted input (CWE-20) and requires a pre-existing renderer foothold, making it a second-stage exploit rather than an initial-access vector. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Compromise renderer process via prior exploit
Delivery
Deliver crafted HTML to New Tab Page
Exploit
Trigger improper input validation (CWE-20)
Execution
Escape renderer sandbox
Impact
Execute in browser-process context

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to have ALREADY compromised the Chrome renderer process - this is an explicit prerequisite from the description, not optional. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals conflict sharply and must be reconciled. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker first lands a separate renderer-process compromise (e.g., via a Chrome RCE) when a victim visits a malicious site, then uses that foothold to feed crafted HTML/input to the New Tab Page and escape the sandbox into the browser process. No public exploit code has been identified, and the attack is only viable as the second stage of an exploit chain that already achieved renderer code execution.
Remediation Upgrade to the primary fix, Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 150.0.7871.47 or later, via the stable desktop channel; Chrome's auto-update will deliver this, but administrators should force-relaunch to apply it since a running browser is not protected until restarted, and Chromium-based downstream browsers (Edge, Brave, etc.) should be updated once their vendors ship the merged fix. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Inventory all Chrome deployments across the organization and identify systems with administrative access or internet-facing exposure. …
