Description states adjacent malicious network traffic (AV:A) with no auth or interaction (PR:N/UI:N); a sandbox escape crosses a trust boundary (S:C) with partial, not total, impact (C/I/A:L).

DescriptionCVE.org

Insufficient validation of untrusted input in WebUI in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via malicious network traffic. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape in Google Chrome desktop before 151.0.7922.72 stems from insufficient validation of untrusted input in a WebUI component, letting a remote attacker on the same network segment potentially break out of the renderer sandbox via malicious network traffic. Google rates the Chromium severity as Medium and vendor-tagged intelligence flags it as 'Potential RCE'; a vendor patch is available, but no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low (0.17%, 6th percentile). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires (1) an unpatched Chrome build prior to 151.0.7922.72, (2) an adjacent-network position per CVSS AV:A - the attacker must reach the victim over the local/adjacent network (same LAN/broadcast domain or link-local scope), not the open internet, and (3) delivery of malicious network traffic that reaches the vulnerable WebUI component whose insufficient input validation is the flaw. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Signals are consistent and point to moderate, not urgent, risk. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who has gained a foothold on the same local network segment (e.g., a compromised device on a corporate LAN or shared Wi-Fi) sends crafted malicious network traffic that reaches a vulnerable WebUI surface in an unpatched Chrome instance. Exploiting the improper input validation, the attacker attempts to escape the renderer sandbox to gain higher-privilege execution. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: Chrome 151.0.7922.72 - upgrade to that Stable channel build or later on all desktop platforms, then fully relaunch the browser so the new binary loads (Chrome staged updates do not take effect until restart). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, notify IT and end-user groups of the required patch and audit Chrome desktop deployment scope across the organization. …
