Use after free in Dawn in Google Chrome prior to 146.0.7680.178 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Google Chrome prior to version 146.0.7680.178 via use-after-free vulnerability in the Dawn graphics library allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through a crafted HTML page. The vulnerability affects all Chrome versions below the patched release and carries high severity per Chromium's assessment.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability exists in Dawn, Google Chrome's graphics abstraction layer used for WebGPU and other rendering operations. A use-after-free condition (CWE-416) occurs when memory is accessed after it has been freed, allowing attackers to corrupt heap state or execute arbitrary code. The flaw is triggered via specially crafted HTML content that manipulates the graphics pipeline, requiring no user interaction beyond visiting a malicious webpage. The affected product scope is broad across all Chrome versions using the vulnerable Dawn implementation (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*).
RemediationAI
Users must upgrade Google Chrome to version 146.0.7680.178 or later immediately. The patch is available through Chrome's automatic update mechanism; users can manually trigger updates via Menu → Help → About Google Chrome, which will display the update status and apply patches upon restart. No workarounds are available for this remote code execution vulnerability, making patching the only effective mitigation. Administrators managing Chrome deployments should verify patch deployment across their environment using Chrome's enterprise update mechanisms or endpoint management tools.
