Remote via crafted page (AV:N, PR:N) needing victim navigation (UI:R); AC:H because a reliable Dawn sandbox escape realistically requires winning conditions/chaining, with scope change (S:C) and Low CIA impact.
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.

Insufficient validation of untrusted input in Dawn in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome's Dawn (WebGPU) component affects all desktop Chrome builds prior to 151.0.7922.72, where insufficient validation of untrusted input lets a remote attacker who lures a victim to a crafted HTML page potentially break out of the renderer sandbox. Chromium rates the severity Medium and the issue carries a CVSS 7.1 with scope change, but there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low at 0.18% (8th percentile). …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the victim to load attacker-controlled content in Chrome's WebGPU path - i.e., a crafted HTML page that exercises the Dawn component, so the WebGPU feature must be reachable/enabled (default in modern Chrome). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are consistent but point to a moderate, not urgent, priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker hosts a malicious web page containing crafted WebGPU/Dawn calls and entices a victim to open it (via phishing link, malvertising, or a compromised site). When the page loads in an unpatched Chrome, the malformed input is processed by Dawn without adequate validation, potentially allowing the attacker to escape the renderer sandbox toward the host; no public POC is currently identified, and full compromise would likely require chaining with an additional renderer bug. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome to 151.0.7922.72 or later on all desktop platforms; Chrome's automatic updater will normally apply this, so verify via chrome://settings/help and relaunch to complete installation, and in managed fleets push the update through your management channel and confirm rollout. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, conduct a Chrome version audit across all managed desktop endpoints to identify systems running versions prior to 151.0.7922.72 and assess user populations most exposed to untrusted web content. …
