Type Confusion in GPU in Google Chrome on Windows 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: Medium)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on Windows versions 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 that triggers a type confusion in the GPU process. The CVSS score of 9.6 reflects the scope-changing nature of escaping the sandbox boundary, though exploitation requires user interaction (visiting a malicious page) and a pre-existing renderer compromise. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is low at 0.03%.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is a CWE-843 (Access of Resource Using Incompatible Type, aka Type Confusion) flaw in Chrome's GPU process, which handles graphics acceleration and runs at a higher privilege boundary than the sandboxed renderer. Chrome's multi-process architecture isolates web content in a low-privilege renderer that communicates with the GPU process via IPC; a type confusion here means the GPU process interprets an object as the wrong type, enabling memory corruption that can be leveraged to execute code outside the renderer sandbox. The affected component is the Windows build of Chrome's Chromium engine prior to 149.0.7827.53.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.53 for Windows - update via Chrome's built-in updater (chrome://settings/help) or through enterprise management tooling such as Group Policy, Chrome Browser Cloud Management, or Microsoft Intune to force the Stable channel update, per https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html. Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi) typically receive a corresponding update shortly after; verify each vendor's release notes before assuming coverage. No standalone workaround targets the GPU type confusion itself, but because exploitation requires a prior renderer compromise, compensating controls include disabling hardware acceleration in chrome://settings (which reduces GPU process attack surface at the cost of degraded video/canvas performance) and enforcing Site Isolation plus strict SafeBrowsing policies via Chrome Enterprise policy to lower the probability of the renderer-stage compromise that this bug chains from.
