Network-delivered malicious file but needs a victim's specific gestures and precise heap conditions (UI:R, AC:H); no authentication (PR:N); use-after-free yields full code execution, so C/I/A all High.

DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Import in Google Chrome on iOS prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker who convinced a user to engage in specific UI gestures to execute arbitrary code via a malicious file. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Google Chrome on iOS prior to 150.0.7871.47 stems from a use-after-free in the browser's Import component, allowing a remote attacker who lures a victim into opening a malicious file and performing specific UI gestures to execute arbitrary code. Rated High by Chromium and CVSS 7.5, the flaw has no public exploit identified at time of analysis and a low EPSS of 0.24% (15th percentile), consistent with its high attack complexity and required user interaction. A vendor patch is available in the June 2026 Stable channel update.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is a CWE-416 use-after-free in the 'Import' code path of Google Chrome on iOS. Use-after-free defects arise when memory is freed while a dangling pointer still references it; subsequent reuse of that memory can let an attacker control the freed object's contents and hijack execution flow, a classic route to memory corruption and arbitrary code execution in C/C++ browser engines. The affected component handles imported files, and the trigger combines processing of a malicious file with particular user-driven UI actions. Notably, Chrome on iOS is built atop Apple's WebKit rather than Blink per App Store policy, so this defect resides in Chrome's own iOS browser/import layer rather than the V8/Blink stack used on desktop builds.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome on iOS to version 150.0.7871.47 or later via the Apple App Store, per Google's Chrome Releases advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html); on managed fleets, push the updated Chrome build through MDM to enforce it. Until updating, the practical compensating control is user awareness: instruct users not to open untrusted or unexpected files in Chrome on iOS and to avoid following prompts to perform import/UI actions from unknown sources, since exploitation requires opening a malicious file plus specific gestures, and where feasible restrict or discourage Chrome's file-import workflow on unpatched devices. These behavioral controls do not fully eliminate risk, so upgrading to the fixed build is the only durable remediation.
