DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Chromecast in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed an attacker on the local network segment to obtain potentially sensitive information from process memory via a malicious peripheral. (Chromium security severity: Low)

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in Chrome's Chromecast component exposes process memory to attackers on the same local network segment via a malicious peripheral, affecting all Chrome versions prior to 150.0.7871.47. The vulnerability carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 with high confidentiality impact (C:H), meaning successful exploitation leaks potentially sensitive data from the Chrome process heap. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to be present on the same local network segment (Layer 2 adjacency - same subnet, VLAN, or Wi-Fi access point) as the victim. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) reflects a moderate-severity but position-constrained vulnerability: exploitation requires the attacker to share the same local network segment as the victim, which substantially limits the attack surface compared to internet-facing flaws. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker positions a rogue device - such as a laptop or Raspberry Pi running a spoofed Chromecast responder - on the same Wi-Fi network as a victim running an unpatched Chrome browser. When Chrome's Chromecast subsystem performs device discovery or initiates a casting session with the malicious device, the crafted response triggers a use-after-free condition in Chrome's process. …
Remediation Update Google Chrome to version 150.0.7871.47 or later, which is confirmed as the vendor-released patch per the Chrome stable channel advisory at chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
