Missing authorization in WebUI in Google Chrome prior to 153.0.8010.36 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to bypass web origin policy via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Missing authorization in Chrome's WebUI component (prior to 153.0.8010.36) allows an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to bypass the web origin policy via a crafted HTML page, potentially reading cross-origin content. This is a chained post-exploitation technique requiring a separately-achieved renderer compromise as a hard prerequisite, not a standalone initial-access vector. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two independent conditions to both be satisfied: (1) the victim must be running a Chrome version prior to 153.0.8010.36 and must actively visit or render a crafted HTML page (user interaction required); and (2) the attacker must have already independently compromised the Chrome renderer process via a separate, unrelated vulnerability - this is not achievable through this CVE alone. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.1 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) accurately reflects the constrained standalone impact: AC:H accounts for the mandatory renderer pre-compromise prerequisite, UI:R reflects required user interaction, and C:L with no integrity or availability impact bounds the consequence to a limited cross-origin read. … 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 primary fix is upgrading Google Chrome to version 153.0.8010.36 or later; this is confirmed as the vendor-released patch per the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/09/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0808145027.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
