Buffer overflow in ANGLE in Google Chrome on on Android prior to 151.0.7922.169 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape via heap-based buffer overflow in ANGLE's graphics engine on Chrome for Android allows a threat actor who has already achieved renderer process compromise to execute arbitrary code entirely outside the Chrome sandbox. All Chrome for Android versions prior to 151.0.7922.169 are affected; the vulnerability requires a two-stage exploit chain combining a separate renderer compromise with this ANGLE flaw. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Two distinct prerequisites must both be satisfied: (1) the attacker must have already compromised the Chrome renderer process via a separate, unrelated vulnerability - this is an explicit prerequisite stated in the CVE description, not an inferred condition; (2) a user must navigate to or be redirected to a crafted HTML page that triggers the malicious graphics operations (UI:R from CVSS). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 8.3 base score reflects the full C:H/I:H/A:H impact triad and a scope change (S:C), which captures the sandbox-escape characteristic accurately. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker operates a two-stage attack: first exploiting a separate renderer-level vulnerability (e.g., a JavaScript engine or DOM parser bug) to gain code execution within Chrome's sandboxed renderer process on an Android device. The attacker then serves the victim a crafted HTML page containing WebGL or graphics API calls designed to trigger the ANGLE heap buffer overflow, corrupting renderer heap memory in a controlled way to pivot code execution outside the sandbox and into the broader Android process space. … |
| Remediation | The primary remediation is updating Google Chrome for Android to version 151.0.7922.169 or later, as documented in the vendor's stable channel advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0826575033.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
