DescriptionCVE.org

Incorrect authorization in USB in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process and leveraged social engineering to potentially execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Sandbox escape via incorrect USB authorization in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to execute arbitrary code outside the Chrome sandbox through a crafted HTML page combined with social engineering. The attack chain is multi-stage: the USB subsystem fails to correctly authorize renderer-process requests, enabling a scoped privilege escalation out of the sandbox (S:C in CVSS). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two chained conditions: (1) the attacker must already have achieved code execution within the Chrome renderer process via a separate, independently exploited vulnerability - this is an explicit prerequisite stated in the CVE description, not an optional condition; and (2) social engineering must be used to facilitate the crafted HTML page interaction, confirmed by UI:R in the CVSS vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment CVSS 8.3 (High) with S:C (scope change) correctly captures the sandbox-escape nature of this flaw, but the AC:H and UI:R modifiers are critical context: exploitation is not straightforward. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Update Google Chrome to version 152.0.7977.65 or later; this is the vendor-confirmed patched release documented at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0256176589.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all Chrome installations across the organization and prepare rollout plan for version 152.0.7977.65 or later, prioritizing users with administrative access or handling sensitive data. …
