Network-delivered crafted page needs no auth (PR:N) but requires the victim to visit it (UI:R); ANGLE lives in the sandboxed GPU process so a successful escape is scope-changing (S:C) with full host impact.

Insufficient validation of untrusted input in ANGLE 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: Critical)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome's ANGLE graphics layer, fixed in stable release 151.0.7922.72, lets a remote attacker who lures a victim to a crafted HTML page break out of the renderer sandbox and gain broader access on the host. Rated Critical by Chromium and scored CVSS 9.6, the flaw stems from insufficient validation of untrusted input (CWE-20) processed by ANGLE and carries a scope-changing impact. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the victim to load attacker-controlled content in a vulnerable Chrome build (before 151.0.7922.72) that reaches ANGLE's graphics-input processing path - i.e., WebGL/WebGPU/graphics rendering must be active, which is the default when hardware acceleration is enabled. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are mixed but lean toward priority patching. … 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 WebGL/graphics content and lures a victim (via phishing link, malvertising, or a compromised site) to open it in a vulnerable Chrome build. When ANGLE processes the untrusted graphics input, the validation flaw is triggered inside the GPU process, and - likely combined with a companion renderer exploit - the attacker escapes the sandbox to gain elevated access on the host. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 151.0.7922.72 - update Google Chrome to 151.0.7922.72 or later on all desktop platforms; Chrome typically auto-updates, so verify via chrome://settings/help and relaunch to apply, and confirm managed/enterprise fleets are not pinned to an older channel. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
