DescriptionCVE.org

Inappropriate implementation in LiveCaption in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.53 allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform out of bounds memory access via malicious network traffic. (Chromium security severity: Low)

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds memory access in Google Chrome's LiveCaption component prior to version 149.0.7827.53 allows a remote attacker to read beyond allocated buffers by delivering crafted network traffic to a user with the feature in use. EPSS is very low (0.03%, 11th percentile) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though Google's Chromium tracker rated severity Low while NVD's CVSS scored it 8.8 High - a notable disparity worth weighing when prioritizing.

Technical ContextAI

LiveCaption is Chrome's on-device accessibility feature that transcribes audio from media and call streams in the browser, processing network-delivered audio/media payloads through a parser pipeline. CWE-125 (Out-of-bounds Read) indicates the implementation reads memory outside the bounds of an allocated buffer, typically due to missing length validation on attacker-controlled fields in the media stream. The affected component sits inside the renderer/media stack of Chromium, so exploitation is constrained by Chrome's sandbox unless chained with a sandbox escape.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.53 - update Chrome via the built-in updater or by restarting the browser, per the Stable Channel announcement at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html. Enterprise fleets should push the 149.0.7827.53 build through their managed update channel and verify rollout with chrome://version. As a temporary compensating control while patching, administrators can disable LiveCaption via the LiveCaptionEnabled enterprise policy (set to false) to remove the affected code path; the trade-off is loss of in-browser captioning for users who rely on it for accessibility. Chromium-derivative browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi) should be updated once their corresponding rebased builds ship.
