DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Input in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Google Chrome desktop before version 151.0.7922.72 stems from a use-after-free in the browser's Input component (Chromium severity High, CVSS 8.8), permitting a remote attacker to run arbitrary code inside the renderer sandbox by luring a victim to a crafted HTML page. Exploitation requires user interaction (visiting the malicious page) but no authentication or prior privileges. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the victim to actively open or navigate to an attacker-controlled HTML page in a vulnerable Chrome build (before 151.0.7922.72) - this user interaction (UI:R) is the primary limiting factor; there is no drive-by-without-interaction or authentication requirement (PR:N). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H = 8.8 High) reflects a network-reachable, low-complexity bug needing only that a user open a page, with full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact within the unchanged scope of the renderer. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker hosts a malicious web page containing crafted HTML/JavaScript that grooms the heap and triggers the use-after-free in Chrome's Input handling, then delivers the link via phishing, malvertising, or a compromised site. When a victim running a pre-151.0.7922.72 Chrome opens the page, the attacker gains arbitrary code execution within the renderer sandbox. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome to 151.0.7922.72 or later on all desktop platforms; Chrome typically auto-updates, so restart the browser to apply the pending update and verify via chrome://settings/help. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all Chrome desktop deployments across the organization, communicate the vulnerability and mandatory patch deadline to affected users, and verify your current version distribution in the environment. …
