Network-delivered UAF with no auth, but requires specific user gestures and reliable heap grooming, so UI:R and AC:H; full renderer compromise keeps C/I/A High.
vuln.today treats the vendor’s rating as authoritative. A higher third-party CVSS (e.g. CISA-ADP) is shown for transparency but does not drive the headline severity.

Use after free in Chrome for iOS 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 potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Low)
AnalysisAI
Heap corruption via use-after-free affects Google Chrome for iOS prior to 150.0.7871.47, where a remote attacker serving a crafted HTML page can trigger memory corruption after luring the victim into performing specific UI gestures. Chromium rated the issue Low severity, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is low at 0.18% (8th percentile) and CISA SSVC records no known exploitation. A vendor patch is available, so the practical priority is routine browser-update hygiene rather than emergency response.
Technical ContextAI
The flaw is a CWE-416 use-after-free: a heap object is freed while a dangling reference remains reachable, so subsequent use corrupts the heap and can be groomed toward controlled memory writes and potential code execution within the renderer. It resides in Chrome's iOS build (the mobile Chrome browser distributed via Apple's App Store), reached through a crafted HTML page rendered by the browser. The CPE provided (cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome) is the generic Chrome application identifier and is not iOS-specific, so it should be read alongside the description, which explicitly scopes this to Chrome for iOS.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome for iOS to 150.0.7871.47 or later via the Apple App Store; enable automatic app updates so the fix rolls out to managed and BYOD devices without user action. Consult the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html to confirm the build. Until devices are updated, the practical compensating control is user awareness - because exploitation requires the victim to load an attacker page and perform specific UI gestures, advise users to avoid untrusted links and unexpected interaction prompts; MDM/web-filtering to block known-malicious domains reduces exposure but does not eliminate the vector. There is no server-side toggle to disable the affected code path, so patching is the only reliable fix.
