Use after free in ANGLE in Google Chrome on on Android prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox-escaping remote code execution in Google Chrome for Android (versions before 152.0.7977.65) stems from a use-after-free in ANGLE, Chrome's graphics translation layer. A remote attacker who lures a victim to a crafted HTML page can execute arbitrary code outside the renderer sandbox, giving control at the browser-process privilege level. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the victim to load an attacker-controlled or attacker-injected HTML page in Chrome for Android before version 152.0.7977.65 - user interaction (visiting/rendering the page) is mandatory per CVSS UI:R. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals here are mixed and worth weighing carefully. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker hosts or injects a crafted HTML page containing malicious WebGL/graphics content and entices an Android user to open it via phishing link, malvertising, or a compromised site. Loading the page triggers the ANGLE use-after-free, corrupting memory to achieve code execution that escapes the browser sandbox. … |
| Remediation | Update to Chrome 152.0.7977.65 or later on Android (Vendor-released patch: 152.0.7977.65); this is the primary and complete fix, delivered through the Google Play Store or the Chrome Stable channel per the Chrome release advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0256176589.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
