Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires that the victim run Google Chrome on macOS at a version below 149.0.7827.103, that the victim grant Web Bluetooth access to attacker-controlled content (UI:R in the CVSS vector - the chooser dialog and pairing approval are user-driven), and that an attacker-controlled Bluetooth peripheral be reachable to the victim's machine, either physically within BLE range or via an emulated peripheral exposed through a compromised local agent. The attack is bounded to macOS Chrome (Windows/Linux not implicated by the description), depends on Web Bluetooth being enabled (it can be disabled via enterprise policy DefaultWebBluetoothGuardSetting=2), and requires affirmative user consent at the chooser, which materially constrains opportunistic mass exploitation versus a no-interaction drive-by RCE.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H supports a high severity reading: network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges required, but user interaction is required (UI:R) - almost certainly the victim must grant Bluetooth pairing/permission to a malicious peripheral or visit a malicious page that initiates the Web Bluetooth chooser. Chromium rated the issue Critical internally, while NVD scored it 8.8 (High), reflecting the UI:R constraint. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, and EPSS data was not provided in the input; realistic exploitation requires Bluetooth proximity or convincing the user to interact with a malicious peripheral, which materially limits mass exploitation. Treat this as a high-priority patch for macOS Chrome fleets, particularly for users who routinely pair Bluetooth devices, but not an emergency on par with a fully unauthenticated drive-by RCE.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker hosts a malicious page that calls navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice() and lures a macOS Chrome user into selecting an attacker-controlled peripheral (or a peripheral that impersonates an expected device) from the chooser dialog. Once paired, the malicious peripheral returns crafted GATT responses that drive the vulnerable code path in Chrome's Bluetooth handling, freeing an object while a dangling reference remains, then reclaiming the slot to hijack a virtual call and execute code in the renderer or browser process. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but Chromium's Critical rating implies the vendor assessed reliable RCE as feasible.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 09, 2026

Remote code execution in Google Chrome on macOS prior to 149.0.7827.103 stems from a use-after-free condition in the browser's Bluetooth subsystem, rated Critical by Chromium's internal severity scale and CVSS 8.8 by NVD. A remote attacker operating a malicious Bluetooth peripheral can trigger memory corruption to execute arbitrary code in the browser process after the victim performs minimal interaction. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though Google has released a patched Stable channel build addressing the flaw.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.103 for macOS - upgrade immediately via the Chrome Stable channel by relaunching the browser or pushing the update through MDM/enterprise management (see https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0153744567.html). For environments that cannot patch immediately, disable Web Bluetooth via the enterprise policy DefaultWebBluetoothGuardSetting=2 (block) or scope it with WebBluetoothAllowedForUrls, which prevents pages from invoking the chooser at the cost of breaking legitimate Web Bluetooth applications such as some hardware-key enrollment flows and IoT device configuration sites. As a defense-in-depth measure, advise users not to approve Bluetooth pairing prompts from untrusted pages and consider temporarily disabling system Bluetooth on Macs that do not require it until the update is deployed.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability is a CWE-416 Use-After-Free defect in Chrome's Web Bluetooth implementation on macOS, which mediates communication between web origins and physical Bluetooth Low Energy peripherals through the navigator.bluetooth API. Use-after-free flaws occur when memory is referenced after being freed, allowing an attacker who controls allocation patterns to coerce the freed slot into holding attacker-controlled data, then dereference it to redirect execution. The Bluetooth stack is a known historical source of high-severity Chrome bugs because it processes asynchronous, externally controlled peripheral data within the privileged browser process, and macOS-specific code paths (CoreBluetooth bridging) add platform-specific lifetime complexity that has produced repeated UAF issues across Chromium releases.

Use after free in Bluetooth in Google Chrome on Mac prior to 149.0.7827.103 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via a malicious peripheral. (Chromium security severity: Critical)

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

A critical remote code execution vulnerability in Google Chrome on macOS (CVE-2026-11633) enables attackers operating a malicious Bluetooth device to execute arbitrary code with minimal user interaction, creating immediate risk to all macOS Chrome users for data exfiltration and system compromise. No active exploitation has been reported, but the combination of high CVSS severity (8.8), RCE capability, and ease of exploitation warrant urgent patching across the organization. Leadership should prioritize this as a mandatory security update for all macOS endpoints within one week.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch. Interim: Disable Bluetooth connectivity on unpatched systems; use MDM to restrict Bluetooth device pairing permissions; isolate critical systems from untrusted Bluetooth peripherals until patched.

Attack Technique

Use-after-free vulnerabilities occur when a program continues to access memory through a pointer after that memory has been deallocated.

Memory corruption occurs when a program writes data beyond the boundaries of allocated memory regions or accesses memory in unintended ways, violating the integrity of the process's address space.

Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.

Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
