AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network vector with user interaction to load a page, but AC:H because a prior renderer compromise and heap grooming are required; scope changes (S:C) as the browser process is escaped with full C/I/A impact.

Use after free in Input in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
Articles & Coverage 1
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome desktop before 151.0.7922.72 stems from a use-after-free in the browser's Input handling, which an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process can leverage via a crafted HTML page to break out of the renderer sandbox. Rated High by Chromium and CVSS 9.6 due to scope change, it requires user interaction (visiting a malicious page) and a prior renderer foothold. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the attacker has ALREADY compromised the Chrome renderer process (an explicit prerequisite in the CVE description) and that the victim loads attacker-controlled content (UI:R - user interaction such as visiting a crafted HTML page). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are mixed and must be weighed together. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker first compromises a Chrome renderer via a separate bug (e.g., a malicious ad or iframe), then lures the victim to a crafted HTML page that triggers the use-after-free in the browser process's Input handling to escape the sandbox and gain browser-process privileges. Chained with the initial renderer bug, this yields full code execution outside the sandbox. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 151.0.7922.72 - update Google Chrome to 151.0.7922.72 or later via the built-in updater (chrome://settings/help) and relaunch to apply, as described in the Chrome Releases advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
