HIGH
Severity by source
AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-triggered via session traffic (AV:N) with no auth or interaction (PR:N/UI:N), but AC:H for the use-after-free race; full code execution in the process gives C:H/I:H/A:H.

Use after free in Chromoting in Google Chrome prior to 147.0.7727.138 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via malicious network traffic. (Chromium security severity: High)
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Google Chrome's Chromoting (Chrome Remote Desktop) component affects all desktop versions prior to 147.0.7727.138, where a use-after-free flaw lets a remote attacker corrupt memory and run arbitrary code by sending malicious network traffic to an active remote-desktop session. Google rates it High severity; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not in CISA KEV, with an EPSS probability of only 0.01% (2nd percentile). A vendor patch is available, and SSVC scores exploitation as none but technical impact as total.
Technical ContextAI
Chromoting is the internal engine behind Chrome Remote Desktop, handling the network protocol, session negotiation, and media/input streaming between a host and client over Chrome. The root cause is CWE-416 (Use After Free): memory associated with a Chromoting object is freed while a dangling reference to it remains, and subsequent access to that stale pointer allows an attacker who controls the timing and content of session network traffic to reclaim the freed allocation with attacker-influenced data, converting the dangling reference into controlled memory corruption and ultimately code execution in the Chrome process. The single affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* (all versions below the fixed build), and the class of bug is typical of the C++ object-lifetime issues that dominate Chromium's high-severity reports.
RemediationAI
Update to Chrome 147.0.7727.138 or later on all desktop platforms - Vendor-released patch: 147.0.7727.138 - by triggering Chrome's built-in updater and relaunching, and ensure managed fleets receive the update via enterprise policy or endpoint management. For Chromium-derived and vendor-packaged builds, apply the corresponding fixed packages once Red Hat and SUSE ship them. As an interim compensating control, disable or uninstall Chrome Remote Desktop so the vulnerable Chromoting code path is not exercised, and restrict remote-desktop connectivity to trusted networks; the trade-off is loss of remote-access functionality for users who rely on it.
