Use after free in Skia in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.103 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape in Google Chrome versions prior to 149.0.7827.103 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the Chromium sandbox via a use-after-free in the Skia graphics library. The flaw is rated High severity by Chromium and carries a CVSS 8.3, but exploitation requires both a prior renderer compromise and user interaction with a crafted HTML page. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in Skia, the 2D graphics rendering library used by Chrome (and many Chromium-derived browsers) to draw paths, text, and images. CWE-416 (Use After Free) means an object in Skia is freed while a dangling reference is still in scope; subsequent access to that memory allows an attacker to manipulate freed-then-reallocated heap chunks to corrupt control data. Because Skia code runs in a privileged GPU/browser process boundary (not solely the sandboxed renderer), a UAF here is a classic sandbox-escape primitive - it lets a compromised renderer reach across the IPC boundary and gain code execution in a less-restricted process.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 149.0.7827.103 - update Chrome Stable to that version or later via the built-in updater or by redeploying managed packages, then restart the browser to load the patched Skia. Enterprise administrators should verify rollout via chrome://settings/help on a sample of endpoints and accelerate the auto-update channel where it has been pinned. Downstream Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera, Electron apps) should be upgraded once their vendors ship a build incorporating the Skia fix; track each vendor's release notes referenced from https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0153744567.html and the Chromium issue at https://issues.chromium.org/issues/513820666. Until patched, the only meaningful compensating control is to restrict browsing to trusted sites via enterprise policy or site isolation enforcement and, on high-risk endpoints, disable hardware acceleration (Settings → System) to reduce some Skia GPU paths - note this degrades rendering performance and does not eliminate the CPU Skia code path, so it is not a substitute for patching.
