DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Navigation 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: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Google Chrome (Desktop) before 150.0.7871.47 stems from a use-after-free in the Navigation component, allowing a remote attacker who lures a victim to a crafted HTML page to corrupt memory and run arbitrary code in the renderer. Chromium rated it Medium, but the CVSS 8.8 reflects full C/I/A impact requiring only user interaction (visiting a page). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and SSVC lists exploitation as none, with a low EPSS of 0.21%.

Technical ContextAI

The flaw is a CWE-416 use-after-free in Chrome's Navigation subsystem - the browser logic that manages page loads, session history, and document lifecycle transitions across frames. Such bugs occur when an object tied to a navigation (e.g., a frame, document, or navigation request) is freed while a dangling pointer to it is later dereferenced, typically triggered by carefully timed navigations or frame manipulations from attacker-controlled HTML/JavaScript. The affected software is Google Chrome per CPE cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome, and because Chromium is the upstream engine, the same defect class often propagates to other Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera) and to downstream distributors (the 'Suse' tag indicates SUSE packaging of Chromium). Google-reported (chrome-cve-admin@google.com), consistent with an internally-found memory-safety issue.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome to 150.0.7871.47 or later via the Stable channel and restart the browser to apply the fix, as described in the Chrome Releases advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html); most installations auto-update, so verify the version under chrome://settings/help and force a relaunch in managed fleets. Users of Chromium-based browsers or distro Chromium packages (e.g., SUSE) should apply their vendor's corresponding update once it rebases to the patched Chromium. If patching must be delayed, reduce exposure by restricting browsing to trusted sites, enabling Enhanced Safe Browsing, and considering site isolation and strict enterprise policies to block untrusted external content - with the trade-off that these reduce but do not eliminate the risk of a crafted-page trigger and may hinder legitimate browsing.
