Sources disagree (Medium–Critical)AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Requires a prior renderer compromise (PR:L) and winning a non-deterministic race (AC:H); a crafted page adds UI:R, and sandbox escape crosses a trust boundary (S:C) with full impact.
vuln.today treats the vendor’s rating as authoritative. A higher third-party CVSS (e.g. CISA-ADP) is shown for transparency but does not drive the headline severity.

Race in DevTools in Google Chrome on Mac 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: Medium)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome for macOS (versions before 151.0.7922.72) can be achieved by an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process, chaining a DevTools race condition via a crafted HTML page to break out of the renderer sandbox. Reported internally by the Chrome team and rated Medium by Chromium, it carries an NVD CVSS of 9.6 due to the scope change, though EPSS is very low (0.14%, 4th percentile). …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the attacker has ALREADY compromised the renderer process - this is the explicit prerequisite stated in the CVE description, making the bug a sandbox-escape second stage rather than a standalone entry point. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals conflict and must be weighed carefully. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker first lands a separate renderer-level exploit (e.g., via a malicious or compromised website the victim visits), gaining code execution inside Chrome's sandboxed renderer. From that foothold, they serve a crafted HTML page that triggers the DevTools race condition, winning the timing window to escape the sandbox and gain the more-privileged browser-process context on the victim's Mac. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 151.0.7922.72 - upgrade Google Chrome on macOS to 151.0.7922.72 or later and restart the browser to ensure the update is applied (verify via chrome://settings/help). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
