Buffer overflow in WebRTC in Google Chrome prior to 153.0.8010.36 allowed a remote attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code inside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Low)

AnalysisAI

Heap-based buffer overflow in Google Chrome's WebRTC component (all versions prior to 153.0.8010.36) enables a remote unauthenticated attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code within the Chrome renderer sandbox by luring a target to a crafted HTML page. The vulnerability is classified CWE-122 and carries a CVSS base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H); however, Chromium's own internal severity rating is 'Low,' which is notably discordant and implies that exploitation is constrained to within-sandbox code execution rather than full OS compromise. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker must induce the target to visit a crafted HTML page in an unpatched Chrome browser (any version below 153.0.8010.36), providing one click of user interaction (UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 8.8 score places this in the 'High' tier, yet Chromium's own internal severity is rated 'Low' - a deliberate signal that the exploit impact is bounded by the sandbox and that the Chrome security team assesses exploitation as non-trivial or of limited consequence in isolation. … 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 The vendor-released patch is Google Chrome version 153.0.8010.36, which addresses this heap buffer overflow in WebRTC. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
