DescriptionCVE.org

Out of bounds write in V8 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 corruption in Google Chrome's V8 engine prior to version 146.0.7680.153 can be triggered through out-of-bounds memory writes when a user visits a malicious webpage. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to achieve arbitrary code execution with high integrity and confidentiality impact. A security patch is available for affected users on Chrome, Ubuntu, and Debian systems.

Technical ContextAI

This vulnerability resides in V8, Google's open-source JavaScript engine that powers Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers. The root cause is classified under CWE-787 (Out-of-bounds Write), a memory safety vulnerability where the engine fails to properly validate buffer boundaries during write operations. The flaw occurs at the heap level, meaning an attacker can corrupt critical memory structures by exploiting improper bounds checking in V8's JIT compiler, garbage collector, or built-in function implementations. When a user navigates to a malicious HTML page containing carefully crafted JavaScript code, the V8 engine processes the code without sufficient validation, writing beyond allocated memory boundaries and corrupting adjacent heap objects.

RemediationAI

Immediately update Google Chrome to version 146.0.7680.153 or later via automatic updates or manual installation from https://www.google.com/chrome. Users can verify their version by navigating to chrome://settings/help, which will automatically check for and apply updates. For enterprise environments, deploy Chrome version 146.0.7680.153 or later through your management tools (Chrome Enterprise, Windows WSUS, or macOS MDM). Debian users should update chromium packages to the patched version once available in security repositories; check your distribution's security advisories at https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-4450. As an interim risk reduction measure pending patching, restrict access to untrusted websites, disable JavaScript for high-risk domains if operationally feasible, or use sandbox restrictions (e.g., Chrome's native sandboxing or additional OS-level confinement). Do not rely on workarounds as a long-term solution; patching is mandatory.
