Severity by source
AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-reachable via a web page with only user interaction (UI:R) and no privileges; the use-after-free enables a sandbox escape, so scope changes (S:C) with high C/I/A impact.
Primary rating from Vendor (Chrome).

Use after free in Dawn in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.46 allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome's Dawn (WebGPU) component affects all desktop builds prior to 150.0.7871.46, where a use-after-free lets a remote attacker who lures a victim to a crafted HTML page potentially break out of the renderer sandbox. Google rates the Chromium severity Critical, and the CVSS 3.1 score of 9.6 reflects a scope-changing memory-corruption bug. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the victim to open an attacker-controlled HTML page in a vulnerable Chrome build (prior to 150.0.7871.46) that exercises the Dawn/WebGPU code path - so UI:R (user interaction) is a mandatory prerequisite and there is no zero-click vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are mixed but lean toward a genuine high-priority patch item. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker hosts or compromises a web page containing malicious WebGPU/JavaScript that drives Dawn into a use-after-free, then lures a victim (via phishing link, malvertising, or a watering-hole site) to open it in an unpatched Chrome. Because AC is low and only user interaction (visiting the page) is required, triggering the bug corrupts GPU-process memory and can be leveraged toward a sandbox escape into a more privileged process. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: update to Google Chrome 150.0.7871.46 or later on Windows, macOS, and Linux; the fix is delivered through the Stable channel and takes effect on browser restart, so ensure Chrome is fully relaunched to complete the update. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
