DescriptionCVE.org

Insufficient validation of untrusted input in WebAPKs in Google Chrome on Android prior to 151.0.7922.109 allowed a local attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a malicious file. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on Android prior to 151.0.7922.109 is achievable by a local attacker via a malicious file exploiting insufficient input validation in WebAPK processing. The CVSS scope change (S:C) with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts reflects the potential for full breakout beyond Chrome's sandbox boundary into the broader Android process space. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; a vendor patch is available in the stable channel release.

Technical ContextAI

WebAPKs (Web Android Packages) are APK files generated by Chrome when a user installs a Progressive Web App (PWA) on Android, granting the PWA a native-app identity and tighter OS integration than a standard browser shortcut. Chrome's sandbox on Android isolates browser renderer processes from the host OS using Android's process isolation primitives; a sandbox escape allows code execution outside that containment boundary. The root cause is CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation) - Chrome fails to adequately validate untrusted data supplied via a WebAPK-related file, allowing attacker-controlled input to influence execution in a privileged context. The affected CPE scope is Chrome on Android only; desktop Chrome is not referenced in the advisory or EUVD affected-version data.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome on Android to version 151.0.7922.109 or later, available via the Google Play Store or Chrome's built-in update mechanism. The vendor patch is confirmed available per the stable channel advisory at chromereleases.googleblog.com (August 2026 stable channel update). Users and enterprise MDM administrators should verify auto-update policies are active for managed Android devices. If immediate patching is not possible, restricting installation or interaction with untrusted WebAPK files and disabling PWA installation for unmanaged users are partial compensating controls, though these carry usability trade-offs for organizations relying on PWA deployments. No alternative workaround is specified in the available advisory data.
