DescriptionNVD

Use after free in Views in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker who convinced a user to engage in specific UI gestures to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in Google Chrome's Views UI framework, fixed in 150.0.7871.47, lets a remote attacker who lures a victim into performing specific UI gestures on a crafted HTML page trigger heap corruption and potentially achieve code execution in the browser process. Chromium rates the flaw Critical, though the CVSS is 8.8 due to required user interaction; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS exploitation probability is low at 0.22%.

Technical ContextAI

The bug lives in Views, Chromium's C++ UI toolkit that renders and manages the browser's on-screen widgets, menus, and controls (the desktop chrome around web content). The root cause is CWE-416 (Use After Free): an object in the Views subsystem is freed while a dangling pointer to it remains reachable, and a subsequent access - reached through a particular sequence of user-driven UI interactions combined with attacker-controlled page content - reuses that stale memory. Exploiting a UAF typically involves grooming the heap so the freed slot is reoccupied by attacker-influenced data, converting the dangling reference into control over program state. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome, i.e. the Chrome desktop application on all platforms served by the Stable channel.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome to 150.0.7871.47 or later via the Chrome Releases stable-channel advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html); most installations auto-update, but administrators should force the update and have users fully restart the browser to load the patched binary, since Chrome does not apply the fix until relaunch. In managed fleets, push the update through your enterprise management channel (Chrome Browser Cloud Management, group policy, MDM, or package repos) and verify the reported version. Until the update is deployed, reduce exposure by cautioning users against interacting with untrusted pages and unexpected UI prompts, since exploitation depends on user-performed gestures; disabling or limiting untrusted web content is the only real compensating control, with the side effect of reduced usability. There is no configuration flag that specifically neutralizes this Views bug, so patching is the definitive remediation.
