DescriptionCVE.org

Information leak in Skia in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker to obtain cross-origin data via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Cross-origin data exfiltration via Skia, Chrome's graphics rendering engine, affects all Google Chrome versions prior to 152.0.7977.65, enabling remote unauthenticated attackers to read pixel-level cross-origin data from a victim's browser session. Exploitation requires user interaction - the victim must visit a crafted HTML page - and impact is limited to partial confidentiality loss with no integrity or availability consequence. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Lure victim to attacker-controlled page
Delivery
Chrome loads crafted HTML triggering Skia cross-origin render
Exploit
Skia leaks pixel data across origin boundary
Execution
Attacker script reads leaked cross-origin content
Impact
Exfiltrate captured data to attacker server

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the victim to actively visit a crafted HTML page using a vulnerable Chrome version prior to 152.0.7977.65 - no drive-by execution without user navigation is possible given UI:R. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.3 Medium rating with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N is internally consistent: the attack is network-delivered without requiring attacker authentication, but UI:R (user must visit the attacker's page) and S:U (scope unchanged, no privilege boundary crossed) meaningfully cap real-world impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker hosts a crafted HTML page that embeds or references content from a target cross-origin resource - such as a corporate intranet page or authenticated web application visible only to logged-in users. A victim running a vulnerable Chrome version is lured to this page via a phishing link or malicious advertisement; the attacker's JavaScript then exploits the Skia rendering leak to read pixel or canvas data from the cross-origin resource rendered by Chrome, gradually exfiltrating visual content without the victim's awareness. …
Remediation Update Google Chrome to version 152.0.7977.65 or later, which contains the vendor-released patch for this vulnerability. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
