Insufficient validation of untrusted input in Password Manager in Google Chrome 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 prior to 149.0.7827.53 allows remote attackers who have already compromised the renderer process to break out of the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page targeting the Password Manager component. The flaw is rated CVSS 7.5 (High) with EPSS at 0.05% (15th percentile) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though Google has shipped a patched stable channel release.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability resides in Chrome's Password Manager subsystem, which handles credential storage and autofill across the browser's multi-process architecture. Chromium isolates web content within sandboxed renderer processes, and components such as Password Manager run with higher privileges in the browser process to mediate access to stored secrets. The root cause is classified as CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation), meaning untrusted input crossing the renderer-to-browser IPC boundary into Password Manager is not adequately validated, enabling an already-compromised renderer to escalate privileges and escape the sandbox. Affected builds correspond to Chrome desktop versions before 149.0.7827.53 (no specific CPE strings were provided in the input).
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.53 (Stable channel). Update Chrome to 149.0.7827.53 or later by allowing the built-in auto-updater to apply the Stable channel update and restarting the browser, as documented at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html. Enterprises managing Chrome via policy should push the new version through their software distribution system and verify via chrome://settings/help on managed endpoints; users of Chromium-derivative browsers should apply equivalent vendor updates as they become available. As an interim compensating control while patching is rolling out, administrators can disable the built-in Password Manager via the PasswordManagerEnabled enterprise policy (trade-off: users lose autofill convenience and may revert to weaker password reuse) or restrict high-risk browsing through web filtering (trade-off: reduced usability and does not address internal/trusted sites that could host a chained renderer exploit).
