Insufficient validation of untrusted input in WebShare in Google Chrome on Mac prior to 149.0.7827.53 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 on macOS prior to 149.0.7827.53 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page abusing the WebShare component. The bug is rated High severity by Chromium and carries a CVSS 8.3 with scope change reflecting the sandbox boundary crossing, though no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
WebShare is the Chrome implementation of the Web Share API, which exposes native sharing functionality (text, URLs, files) from web content to the host operating system's share sheet - on macOS this bridges JavaScript-originated share intents to platform IPC handlers. The flaw is classified as CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation), meaning data flowing from the lower-privileged renderer process into the higher-privileged browser/broker process via WebShare IPC messages is not adequately validated, enabling a compromised renderer to influence behavior across the sandbox boundary. Affected CPE coverage per EUVD is the google:chrome product on the apple:macos platform prior to 149.0.7827.53; Windows and Linux builds are not listed as affected by this specific issue.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.53 for macOS - upgrade immediately via Chrome's built-in updater (chrome://settings/help) or by redeploying the managed MSI/PKG through your endpoint management tooling, as described in the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html. Because the bug requires a prior renderer compromise, the highest-leverage compensating control until patching completes is enforcing Site Isolation (enabled by default in Chrome) and ensuring the Enhanced Safe Browsing policy is on to reduce the likelihood of the renderer-stage exploit landing. Enterprises can additionally disable the Web Share API exposure via the navigator.share surface using the WebShareEnabled-style site permission controls or by restricting which origins can call share-related APIs through enterprise policy, accepting the trade-off that legitimate share-sheet integrations on internal web apps will break; this should be treated as a temporary measure rather than a substitute for the version upgrade.
