DescriptionCVE.org

Inappropriate implementation in CORS in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.169 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to bypass site isolation via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Site isolation bypass in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.169 enables a renderer-compromised attacker to cross origin boundaries via a flawed CORS implementation, reading or modifying data from otherwise isolated sites. This is a chained exploitation scenario: it requires a preceding renderer compromise as a prerequisite, making it a sandbox-escape-class vulnerability rather than a standalone browser attack. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two distinct preconditions: first, the attacker must have already compromised the Chrome renderer process through a separate vulnerability prior to leveraging this flaw - this is an explicit prerequisite stated in the CVE description and encoded in AC:H of the CVSS vector; second, the victim user must interact with or navigate to a crafted HTML page (UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS base score of 4.2 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N) reflects the genuine constraints on exploitability: AC:H encodes the substantial prerequisite of a prior renderer compromise, and UI:R requires the victim to interact with a crafted page. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who has already exploited a separate renderer-compromise vulnerability in Chrome - for example, a JavaScript engine memory-corruption bug - uses that foothold within the renderer process to serve or navigate to a crafted HTML page that triggers the flawed CORS handling. The CORS logic fails to enforce the site isolation boundary, allowing the attacker's renderer context to read or write data belonging to a different, isolated origin such as a banking or intranet site open in another tab. …
Remediation Update Google Chrome to stable channel version 151.0.7922.169 or later, as released on the Chrome stable update published at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0826575033.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
