DescriptionCVE.org

Out of bounds read in Chromoting in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 149.0.7827.155 allowed a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information from process memory via a malicious file. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds read in Chromoting (Chrome Remote Desktop) on Windows exposes process memory to local attackers who can persuade a victim to open a malicious file. Affected are all Chrome releases on Windows prior to 149.0.7827.155. No public exploit code has been identified and EPSS places exploitation probability at the 8th percentile, indicating low near-term threat despite the High confidentiality impact rating assigned by the CVSS vector.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in Chromoting, Google's Chrome Remote Desktop component embedded within the Chrome browser on Windows. CWE-125 (Out-of-Bounds Read) describes the root cause class: the parser or handler for a crafted input file reads memory beyond the allocated buffer boundary, allowing an attacker to observe bytes from adjacent process memory regions. Because the read does not cause a write or control-flow hijack, impact is limited to information disclosure rather than code execution. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers all Chrome versions; the vendor advisory narrows the scope to the Windows platform and versions preceding 149.0.7827.155.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Google Chrome on Windows to version 149.0.7827.155 or later, which is the vendor-released patch confirmed via the Chrome stable channel advisory at http://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_01750511403.html. Chrome's auto-update mechanism should deliver this automatically to most managed and consumer installations; administrators should verify fleet-wide deployment via endpoint management tooling. If immediate patching is not feasible, a practical compensating control is to disable or uninstall the Chrome Remote Desktop (Chromoting) host component from affected Windows systems, which removes the vulnerable attack surface with the trade-off of losing remote desktop functionality. Restricting which users can open untrusted files on systems running Chromoting also reduces exposure, as user interaction is required to trigger the vulnerability.
