DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Resources in Google Chrome on Android prior to 151.0.7922.109 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)

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in Chrome's Resources component on Android enables sandbox escape for attackers who have already established a foothold in the renderer process. Affected versions are all Chrome for Android releases prior to 151.0.7922.109. The CVSS scope change (S:C) and High ratings across Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability confirm that successful exploitation breaks out of the browser sandbox, exposing the underlying Android OS. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, though the chained exploit capability (renderer-to-sandbox-escape) represents a critical capability for advanced threat actors.

Technical ContextAI

CWE-416 (Use After Free) arises when a program continues to reference memory after it has been freed, allowing an attacker to influence or control the dangling pointer's contents and redirect execution. In this case, the vulnerable component is the Resources subsystem of Chromium's renderer on Android. Chrome's multi-process architecture sandboxes renderer processes to limit blast radius from memory corruption bugs; however, a UAF in a privileged or shared resource boundary can be leveraged to corrupt adjacent memory in a more privileged process context, achieving a sandbox escape. The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:H/UI:R/S:C reflects the network-delivered attack, the complexity of coordinating the UAF with a prior renderer compromise, required user interaction (visiting a crafted page), and the confirmed scope change across process isolation boundaries. The affected CPE scope is Google Chrome on Android, versions prior to 151.0.7922.109.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome on Android to version 151.0.7922.109 or later via the Google Play Store or Chrome's built-in update mechanism. The vendor patch is confirmed available per the Chrome stable channel release advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_01193673229.html. For environments where immediate updating is not possible, compensating controls include restricting access to untrusted web content via enterprise browser policy (block non-allowlisted URLs), enabling Chrome's Site Isolation feature if not already active (reduces renderer scope), and deploying Android Enterprise policies to prevent sideloaded or untrusted browser configurations. Note that these controls reduce attack surface but cannot fully mitigate a UAF exploit in a compromised renderer. Chromium-derived browsers on Android should be assessed separately for patch availability from their respective vendors.
