DescriptionCVE.org

Insufficient policy enforcement in WebXR in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to bypass same origin policy via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Same-origin policy bypass in Google Chrome's WebXR subsystem prior to 151.0.7922.72 allows a remote attacker to violate cross-origin integrity boundaries by luring a victim to a crafted HTML page. The flaw arises from insufficient policy enforcement (CWE-346: Origin Validation Error) in the WebXR API, enabling cross-origin write or manipulation operations that Chrome's SOP should prevent. No active exploitation is confirmed and EPSS is low at 0.18% (8th percentile), but a vendor patch is available and deployment is recommended given Chrome's ubiquitous footprint.

Technical ContextAI

WebXR is the browser API enabling augmented and virtual reality experiences on the web, exposed through JavaScript in the renderer process. CWE-346 (Origin Validation Error) identifies the root cause: Chrome's WebXR subsystem fails to adequately validate the calling page's origin when enforcing same-origin policy controls, allowing cross-origin policy to be sidestepped. The same-origin policy is a foundational browser security boundary preventing scripts at one origin from interfering with resources at another. CPE cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms this affects Google Chrome across all desktop platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux). The Chromium issue tracker reference (issues.chromium.org/issues/517628043) suggests the flaw was internally tracked and patched as part of Google's standard security release cycle, with severity rated Medium by the Chrome security team.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome to version 151.0.7922.72 or later, which is confirmed by vendor advisory to contain the fix for this WebXR policy enforcement flaw (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html). Most consumer Chrome installations update automatically via the built-in update mechanism; administrators managing enterprise deployments should verify update propagation through Chrome Browser Cloud Management or Group Policy and confirm the installed version via chrome://settings/help. As a compensating control where immediate patching is not feasible, enterprise administrators can disable WebXR access via the WebXrEnabled Chrome policy (set to false), which eliminates the attack surface entirely at the cost of breaking any legitimate XR web applications in the environment. Restricting navigation to untrusted external sites via proxy or browser filtering also reduces exposure given that user interaction is required.
