Type Confusion 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: High)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape in Google Chrome's ANGLE graphics layer prior to version 151.0.7922.72 lets a remote attacker who lures a victim to a crafted HTML page trigger a type confusion (CWE-843) and potentially break out of the renderer sandbox. Google rates the Chromium severity High, and the CVSS 9.6 reflects a scope-changing bug requiring only that the victim open a page. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the victim to actively open a crafted HTML page in a vulnerable Chrome build (< 151.0.7922.72) that exercises the ANGLE graphics path (typically WebGL/GPU-backed content) - this is the UI:R limiting factor: there is no purely passive, zero-click vector implied. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Signals conflict in an instructive way. … 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/shader content and lures a victim (via phishing link, malvertising, or a compromised site) to open it in an unpatched Chrome. The page triggers the ANGLE type confusion to corrupt memory and attempt escape from the renderer sandbox into the more-privileged GPU/browser process. …
Remediation Update Chrome to 151.0.7922.72 or later (Vendor-released patch: 151.0.7922.72); patch is available per the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, enable automatic updates for Chrome and notify all employees to update to version 151.0.7922.72 or later; verify that auto-update is not blocked by security software or policies. …
