DescriptionCVE.org

Heap buffer overflow in ANGLE in Google Chrome prior to 146.0.7680.153 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Heap buffer overflow in Google Chrome's ANGLE graphics library (versions prior to 146.0.7680.153) enables remote attackers to corrupt heap memory and potentially achieve arbitrary code execution through malicious HTML pages requiring only user interaction. The vulnerability affects Chrome on multiple platforms including Ubuntu and Debian systems. A patch is available and should be applied immediately given the high severity and attack accessibility.

Technical ContextAI

ANGLE is a graphics abstraction layer used by Chrome to provide WebGL and other graphics APIs across multiple platforms. The vulnerability resides in ANGLE's heap memory management, specifically classified as CWE-122 (Heap-based Buffer Overflow). When ANGLE processes specially crafted WebGL or graphics-related content embedded in HTML, it fails to properly validate buffer boundaries before writing data, allowing an attacker-controlled write operation to overflow heap buffers. This class of vulnerability is particularly dangerous in sandboxed environments like browsers because heap corruption can lead to information disclosure, denial of service, or in sophisticated scenarios, privilege escalation or arbitrary code execution.

RemediationAI

Immediately upgrade Google Chrome to version 146.0.7680.153 or later via the built-in auto-update mechanism or manual download from https://www.google.com/chrome/. For Debian-based systems, update the chromium or chromium-browser package through your distribution's package manager (apt update && apt upgrade chromium). Organizations managing Chrome deployments should force update policies to ensure rapid remediation across all endpoints. No workarounds are available for this vulnerability while running unpatched versions; users relying on older Chrome versions should prioritize patching as the flaw is remotely exploitable through normal web browsing. Verify successful patching by checking Chrome's version number in Settings > About Chrome, which will auto-update to the latest patch if connected to the internet.
