DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Mobile in Google Chrome on on iOS prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via crafted network traffic. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in the Mobile component of Google Chrome on iOS prior to 152.0.7977.65 enables remote code execution outside the browser sandbox via crafted network traffic, requiring no user interaction. The sandbox escape elevates the severity beyond a typical renderer bug, as successful exploitation grants attacker-controlled code execution in a context beyond Chrome's sandboxed process. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Establish network reachability to target iOS device
Delivery
Deliver memory-layout-grooming traffic to shape Chrome heap
Exploit
Send crafted network payload triggering use-after-free in Mobile component
Execution
Overwrite freed memory with attacker-controlled data
Persist
Redirect execution flow to shellcode
Impact
Execute arbitrary code outside Chrome sandbox

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The vulnerability affects Chrome on iOS exclusively - users on Android, Windows, macOS, or Linux Chrome are not in scope. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) scores 8.1, but the AC:H rating acknowledges that triggering a use-after-free reliably requires precise timing or specific heap state conditions. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A remote attacker positions themselves to deliver crafted network traffic to a victim running an unpatched Chrome on iOS - for example, via a malicious server response, a man-in-the-middle position on a shared network, or a WebRTC-based interaction. The crafted traffic triggers a use-after-free in Chrome's Mobile component, corrupting freed heap memory and redirecting execution to attacker-controlled code running outside the Chrome sandbox. …
Remediation Update Google Chrome on iOS to version 152.0.7977.65 or later, available via the Apple App Store. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
