Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a victim to open attacker-controlled content in a vulnerable Chrome build before 152.0.7977.65 (UI:R - the crafted HTML page must be loaded), but needs no authentication or prior privileges (PR:N) and works over the network against default Chrome installations. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals conflict in an informative way. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker hosts a crafted HTML page (or injects one via a malicious ad or compromised site) and lures a victim running a vulnerable Chrome build to visit it. The page triggers the use-after-free in Views, corrupts heap memory to gain code execution, and chains the primitive to escape the sandbox and run arbitrary code with the browser process's privileges. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 152.0.7977.65 - update Google Chrome to 152.0.7977.65 or later on all desktop platforms via the Stable channel and relaunch the browser to apply the fix (see https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0256176589.html). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
