Use after free in Ozone in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Google Chrome's Ozone platform-abstraction layer prior to 150.0.7871.47 lets a remote attacker execute arbitrary code by luring a victim to a crafted HTML page. The flaw is a use-after-free (CWE-416) rated Critical by Chromium and CVSS 8.8, requiring the victim to visit a malicious page (UI:R) but no privileges. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and EPSS probability is low (0.26%), but the memory-corruption class and 'total' technical impact make it a high-priority browser patch.
Technical ContextAI
Ozone is Chromium's graphics/windowing abstraction layer that mediates between the browser and the underlying platform's display, input, and GPU compositing subsystems (X11, Wayland, DRM/GBM, etc.). A use-after-free (CWE-416) occurs when the code continues to reference a heap object after it has been freed; an attacker who controls object lifetime and reallocation can reclaim the freed memory with attacker-shaped data, corrupt object vtables or pointers, and redirect execution. The single affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome (all versions below the fix), and because Ozone code runs inside the browser/GPU process, successful exploitation of the freed object can yield code execution in a Chrome process context, typically requiring a further sandbox escape for full system compromise.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome to 150.0.7871.47 or later on all desktop platforms, per Google's Stable Channel Update advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html); restart the browser to ensure the update is applied since Chrome staggers rollout. There is no supported feature-flag workaround for an Ozone UAF, so the practical compensating controls until deployment are behavioral: caution users against untrusted links, enforce update via enterprise policy (auto-update / forced relaunch), and consider Site Isolation and 'Enhanced Protection' Safe Browsing to raise the exploitation bar. For Chromium-derived browsers, apply the equivalent vendor build once released.
