Use after free in Device Trust 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: Medium)
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 sandbox via a crafted HTML page that triggers a use-after-free in the Device Trust component. The flaw carries a CVSS 9.6 due to scope change and full CIA impact, though Chromium rates the underlying severity as Medium and EPSS is very low (0.03%, 11th percentile); no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability resides in Chrome's Device Trust subsystem, which integrates with enterprise device-trust connectors to attest endpoint posture to web origins. The root cause is CWE-416 (Use After Free): an object in the Device Trust code path is freed while a dangling reference remains reachable, and subsequent reuse of that memory enables an attacker controlling the renderer to corrupt browser-process state. Because Device Trust logic crosses the renderer/browser IPC boundary, a freed object reused in the privileged browser process effectively lifts attacker-controlled code or data out of the renderer sandbox. The affected platform is specifically the macOS build of Chrome (Chromium-based), per the upstream Chromium issue 501360342 and the Stable Channel update advisory.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: update Chrome on macOS to 149.0.7827.53 or later via the Stable Channel (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html); enterprise fleets should push the update through their existing Chrome management (Google Admin console, Jamf, Intune, or MDM) and verify via chrome://settings/help. No specific workaround is published, but because exploitation requires a compromised renderer as a precondition, defense-in-depth measures that reduce renderer compromise materially reduce risk: enable Enhanced Safe Browsing (trade-off: sends more telemetry to Google), enforce Site Isolation (default on, but verify chrome://flags hasn't been altered), and where feasible disable or restrict the Device Trust connector via the BrowserContextAwareAccessSignalsAllowlist enterprise policy until patched (trade-off: breaks enterprise device-attestation workflows for the affected origins).
