Use after free in Ozone in Google Chrome on Linux prior to 149.0.7827.53 allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on Linux prior to 149.0.7827.53 allows a remote attacker to break out of the renderer process by luring a user to a crafted HTML page that triggers a use-after-free in the Ozone display/windowing layer. Google rates the underlying Chromium issue as High severity and a vendor patch is available; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the EPSS score is very low (0.03%).
Technical ContextAI
Ozone is Chromium's platform abstraction layer for windowing, input, and graphics on Linux (Wayland, X11, DRM/GBM); it sits inside the browser/GPU process boundary that the renderer sandbox is meant to constrain. CWE-416 (Use After Free) indicates an object in Ozone is freed but a dangling pointer is subsequently dereferenced, letting an attacker who already controls a compromised renderer (via the crafted HTML page) corrupt memory in a more privileged process and thereby escape the sandbox. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and the EUVD constraint 'Chrome 149.0.7827.53 <149.0.7827.53' scope the flaw to Chrome on Linux only.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.53 for Linux - upgrade all Linux Chrome installs to 149.0.7827.53 or later via the Stable channel and restart the browser to apply, per the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html (issue https://issues.chromium.org/issues/513006660). No vendor-supplied configuration workaround is documented; until patching, compensating controls that meaningfully reduce risk include enforcing Chrome auto-update via enterprise policy, restricting browsing of untrusted sites through a web proxy/URL allowlist (trade-off: blocks legitimate user browsing), and running Chrome under an additional OS-level sandbox such as bubblewrap/firejail or as an unprivileged user inside a hardened container (trade-off: may break GPU acceleration, file pickers, or extensions that rely on Ozone/Wayland integration).
