Use after free in WebRTC in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.53 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Google Chrome versions prior to 149.0.7827.53 stems from a use-after-free flaw in the WebRTC component that lets a remote attacker run arbitrary code within the renderer sandbox by luring a victim to a crafted HTML page. Google rates the underlying Chromium issue as High severity, and no public exploit is identified at time of analysis, though publicly available patch metadata and Chromium bug tracker entries (issue 503422316) confirm the fix.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability resides in WebRTC, the real-time communications stack built into Chromium that handles peer-to-peer audio, video, and data channels through APIs such as RTCPeerConnection and getUserMedia. The root cause is CWE-416 (Use After Free): a WebRTC object is freed while a dangling pointer remains reachable, and subsequent dereference or reallocation of that memory region - typically driven by attacker-controlled JavaScript invoking WebRTC APIs - allows the attacker to corrupt heap state and pivot to arbitrary code execution. Because WebRTC code runs in the renderer process, exploitation lands the attacker inside Chrome's sandboxed renderer; a separate sandbox escape would be required for full system compromise.
RemediationAI
The primary remediation is to upgrade to Google Chrome 149.0.7827.53 or later on the Stable desktop channel, the vendor-released patched version cited in the Chrome Releases advisory at http://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html and tracked in Chromium issue https://issues.chromium.org/issues/503422316. Enterprises should force-restart Chrome to apply the update since the browser only completes patching on relaunch, and administrators can verify rollout via the chrome://settings/help page or Chrome Browser Cloud Management. As a compensating control until patching completes, restrict or disable WebRTC by deploying the URLBlocklist/WebRtcAllowLegacyTLSProtocols enterprise policies or by blocking high-risk sites at the proxy; note that disabling WebRTC will break video conferencing tools such as Google Meet, Microsoft Teams web client, and Discord web, so the workaround is generally only viable for short windows or restricted user populations.
