Severity by source
AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L
Network delivery via crafted content requires user interaction (UI:R); heap overflow in renderer yields full C/I impact; A:L reflects process crash potential without full system denial of service; S:U because Chromium sandbox prevents automatic OS-level scope change.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) is enabled by a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) that network-accessible, unauthenticated attackers can trigger when a victim interacts with attacker-controlled content. The CVSS 3.1 score of 8.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L) reflects high confidentiality and integrity impact with low attack complexity, requiring only that the user visit or open a crafted resource. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The CVSS UI:R metric confirms that user interaction is required - the victim must actively navigate to or open attacker-controlled content within Microsoft Edge; passive network-level exploitation is not possible. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 8.3 score is supported by AV:N (network delivery), AC:L (no race condition or complex setup required), PR:N (no attacker authentication needed), and UI:R (victim must interact with malicious content), with high confidentiality and integrity impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker crafts a malicious web page or document containing content designed to trigger a heap buffer overflow in Microsoft Edge's Chromium rendering engine. When a victim user opens the page in Edge, the overflow corrupts heap memory in the renderer process, allowing the attacker to hijack control flow and execute arbitrary code within the browser process context. … |
| Remediation | Update Microsoft Edge to the latest available version using the browser's built-in update mechanism (Settings > Help > About Microsoft Edge) or via Windows Update and Microsoft Endpoint Manager for enterprise deployments. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, issue an urgent security alert to all users and disable Microsoft Edge in non-critical workflows where alternative browsers are available; prioritize monitoring of CISA and Microsoft security channels for patch releases. …
