DescriptionCVE.org

Improper input validation in Navigation in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to bypass site isolation via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Site isolation bypass in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to escape process-level sandboxing constraints via a crafted HTML page. The vulnerability stems from improper input validation in Chrome's Navigation subsystem (CWE-20), and exploitation requires both a prior renderer compromise and user interaction. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two specific, sequential preconditions: the attacker must have already achieved code execution within the Chrome renderer process (via a separate renderer vulnerability), and the victim user must interact with a crafted HTML page (UI:R in the CVSS vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N accurately captures the constrained risk profile: high attack complexity reflects the mandatory prerequisite of a pre-compromised renderer process, which is itself a non-trivial exploit chain step. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Update Google Chrome to version 152.0.7977.65 or later, which is the vendor-released patch as announced in the stable channel update advisory at chromereleases.googleblog.com. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
