DescriptionCVE.org

Inappropriate implementation in Blink in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to leak cross-origin data via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Cross-origin data leakage in Google Chrome's Blink rendering engine (all versions prior to 151.0.7922.72) enables remote attackers to read data from other origins by luring a user to a crafted HTML page. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) confirms the attack is network-delivered, requires no authentication, and succeeds with only user interaction - a single page visit. EPSS of 0.21% (11th percentile) and absence from CISA KEV indicate low exploitation probability and no confirmed active exploitation at time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI

Blink is the rendering engine embedded in Google Chrome responsible for parsing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and enforcing browser security boundaries. CWE-346 (Origin Validation Error) identifies the root cause as improper enforcement of the Same-Origin Policy (SOP), the fundamental browser security mechanism preventing scripts from one origin from reading resources belonging to another. The 'inappropriate implementation' label indicates a logic flaw in some Blink feature or API that fails to correctly verify or enforce origin boundaries during page rendering, allowing cross-origin data to be accessed and exfiltrated. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers all Chrome desktop platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux). The specific Blink subsystem responsible is not disclosed in public data; the Chromium issue tracker reference (issues.chromium.org/issues/513824957) likely contains technical detail under a restricted disclosure.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome to version 151.0.7922.72 or later immediately; this is the vendor-confirmed patched release per the stable channel advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. Most desktop installations auto-update, but enterprise environments managing Chrome via group policy or endpoint management (e.g., Google Admin, Intune) should force the update push. As a temporary compensating control while patching is underway, enforcing Chrome's Site Isolation policy (--site-per-process, enabled by default in modern Chrome but verifiable via chrome://flags) reduces cross-origin data exposure surface; however, this does not fully mitigate the Blink logic flaw. Restricting user navigation to untrusted external HTML pages via browser policy or proxy filtering may reduce exposure but carries significant usability trade-offs in most environments.
