DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Input in Google Chrome prior to 148.0.7778.216 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape in Google Chrome versions prior to 148.0.7778.216 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the sandbox via a crafted HTML page that triggers a use-after-free in the Input component. Chromium rates the severity as High and CVSS scores it 8.3, but EPSS estimates exploitation probability at only 0.03% (11th percentile) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The flaw is a chained-exploitation primitive rather than a standalone RCE, requiring an attacker to first achieve renderer code execution before leveraging this bug.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is a CWE-416 (Use After Free) memory corruption issue in the Input subsystem of Chromium's browser process, which handles input event routing across renderer/browser process boundaries. The affected codebase is the Chromium engine used by Google Chrome (cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome), and likely propagates to downstream browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi) once they pull the upstream fix. Use-after-free flaws occur when memory is freed but a dangling pointer is later dereferenced; in a browser context they can yield read/write primitives that, combined with type confusion, allow attackers to corrupt sensitive browser-process objects and escape the renderer sandbox.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 148.0.7778.216 (Stable channel) - upgrade immediately via Chrome's built-in updater and restart the browser to apply, as detailed in the Chrome Releases advisory https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/05/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0877304591.html. For managed fleets, push the update via Group Policy, Jamf, or your MDM and verify version >= 148.0.7778.216 across endpoints. Administrators of Chromium-derived browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera) should track their respective vendor advisories and apply downstream updates once available. Because this bug requires a prior renderer compromise to exploit, complementary mitigations include enabling Site Isolation (default on desktop), enforcing Enhanced Safe Browsing, and restricting installation of untrusted extensions; these reduce the likelihood of the prerequisite renderer compromise but do not address the underlying use-after-free.
