Remote crafted page (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N) requires the victim to visit it (UI:R); renderer memory-corruption RCE gives full C/I/A but stays sandboxed, so S:U.
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.

Integer overflow in WebXR in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)
AnalysisAI
Sandboxed remote code execution in Google Chrome's WebXR implementation (all channels prior to 151.0.7922.72) lets a remote attacker run arbitrary code within the renderer sandbox when a victim visits a crafted HTML page. Google rates the Chromium security severity as Medium, though the CVSS 8.8 reflects high impact contingent on user interaction; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low (0.22%, 13th percentile). Note a source conflict: the description cites an integer overflow while the CWE and tags indicate use-after-free/memory corruption.
Technical ContextAI
WebXR is the browser API that exposes virtual- and augmented-reality device data (pose tracking, immersive rendering) to web content, processing untrusted geometry and session parameters inside Chrome's renderer process. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*. The root-cause signals conflict: the CVE description names an integer overflow (a length/size miscalculation, CWE-190 in spirit), while the assigned CWE-416 (Use After Free) and the vendor tags ('Use After Free', 'Memory Corruption') point to a dangling-pointer dereference. In practice an integer overflow in a WebXR allocation/size computation can lead to undersized buffers and subsequent memory-corruption/UAF primitives, which is consistent with both signals. Exploitation yields code execution confined to the renderer sandbox, not a full host compromise.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: 151.0.7922.72 - update Google Chrome to 151.0.7922.72 or later (Stable channel) and restart the browser to load the fix; managed fleets should confirm auto-update is enabled or push the update via enterprise policy. See the vendor advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. If immediate patching is not possible, a targeted compensating control is to disable WebXR by setting the chrome://flags 'WebXR' / OpenXR runtime flags to Disabled or applying enterprise policy to block the WebXR/VR API and immersive-web content, which removes the vulnerable attack surface at the cost of breaking legitimate AR/VR web experiences (a low-impact trade-off for most enterprise users). Restricting untrusted browsing and ensuring the renderer sandbox remains enabled further limits impact until the update is applied.
