DescriptionCVE.org

Integer overflow in ANGLE in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 146.0.7680.178 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to perform an out of bounds memory write via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Integer overflow in ANGLE (Google's OpenGL abstraction layer) in Chrome on Windows before version 146.0.7680.178 enables out-of-bounds memory writes if the renderer process is compromised, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code with renderer privileges. The vulnerability requires prior renderer process compromise, limiting the immediate attack surface but representing a critical post-compromise escalation vector. Chromium severity is rated High; patch availability confirms vendor remediation.

Technical ContextAI

ANGLE (Almost Native Graphics Layer Engine) is Google's abstraction layer for OpenGL ES on Windows, providing graphics rendering capabilities for Chrome. The integer overflow occurs in ANGLE's memory management during graphics operations, violating size calculations that lead to CWE-472 (Integer Overflow to Buffer Overflow). When an integer overflows, subsequent buffer allocation and write operations access memory beyond intended boundaries. The vulnerability is specific to Windows implementations of ANGLE and requires a malicious HTML page to trigger the overflow through crafted graphics commands. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* indicates all Chrome versions prior to 146.0.7680.178 are affected across all platforms where this code path is active.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Google Chrome to version 146.0.7680.178 or later on Windows systems. The patch is vendor-released and addresses the integer overflow in ANGLE. Users should enable automatic updates to receive the fix immediately; manual update can be performed by navigating to Chrome Menu > Help > About Google Chrome, which will download and install the latest version with automatic restart on next browser restart. No workarounds are available for users unable to patch immediately, as the vulnerability requires renderer compromise before exploitation-maintaining strong browser security practices (avoiding untrusted extensions, disabling insecure downloads, and keeping the OS patched) indirectly reduces renderer compromise likelihood.
