AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Remote crafted-page delivery (AV:N, AC:L, PR:N) needs one victim click (UI:R); a sandbox escape crosses a trust boundary (S:C) yielding full code execution (C/I/A:H).

Inappropriate implementation in Media in Google Chrome on on Mac prior to 151.0.7922.169 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox-escaping remote code execution in Google Chrome for macOS (versions prior to 151.0.7922.169) stems from an improper implementation in the browser's Media component, letting a remote attacker who lures a victim to a crafted HTML page run arbitrary code outside the renderer sandbox. Rated High by Chromium and carrying a 9.6 CVSS with a scope change, this flaw breaks the browser's primary containment boundary, though there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the victim to be running Google Chrome on macOS at a version below 151.0.7922.169 and to open a crafted HTML page - user interaction (UI:R) is mandatory, so the attacker must lure the target to attacker-controlled content rather than exploiting passively. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine high priority, not an inflated score. … 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 media content and lures a macOS Chrome user to visit it via a phishing link, malvertising, or a compromised site. When Chrome's Media component processes the crafted content, the improper implementation is triggered and the attacker executes arbitrary code outside the renderer sandbox, gaining code execution in the user's context on the Mac. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: Google Chrome 151.0.7922.169 for macOS - update Chrome immediately via the built-in updater (Chrome menu → About Google Chrome) and relaunch to complete installation, then confirm the version is at or above 151.0.7922.169. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all macOS systems running Google Chrome and notify users of the critical update; escalate patch deployment to expedited priority status. …
