DescriptionCVE.org

Inappropriate implementation in Crypto in Google Chrome on Mac prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape in Google Chrome for macOS before 151.0.7922.72 lets an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process break out of the browser sandbox using a crafted HTML page, escalating a contained renderer foothold toward the host. The flaw sits in Chrome's Crypto component and is a second-stage bug that must be chained with an initial renderer compromise. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low (0.18%, 8th percentile), and Google rates the Chromium security severity as Medium despite the high CVSS.

Technical ContextAI

The defect is classed under CWE-693 (Protection Mechanism Failure), meaning a security control - here the Chrome renderer sandbox that isolates untrusted web content from the browser and OS - is implemented in a way that can be bypassed rather than a memory-corruption primitive per se. The affected surface is Chrome's Crypto implementation on the macOS platform build (cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*). Chrome's multi-process architecture confines rendering of web pages to a low-privilege renderer; a sandbox escape like this abuses inappropriate implementation to cross that trust boundary from renderer into a higher-privilege context, which is why the CVSS scope is marked Changed (S:C).

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: Chrome 151.0.7922.72 - update the macOS Stable channel to that build or later (Chrome menu > About Google Chrome forces the update check and applies the fix on relaunch). In managed fleets, push the update via MDM/Google Admin console and force a browser restart so the staged update takes effect, since the fix is inert until relaunch. There is no separate workaround for a sandbox-escape defect; the meaningful compensating control is to reduce renderer-compromise exposure that this bug chains from - keep Chrome fully updated so the initial renderer bug is closed, and consider enabling stricter site isolation and enterprise policies that limit untrusted content, accepting minor compatibility friction. Reference: Google Stable channel update (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html) and Chromium issue 520516655.
