DescriptionCVE.org

Incorrect authorization in Extensions in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to bypass web origin policy into a privileged page via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

AnalysisAI

Incorrect authorization in Google Chrome's Extensions subsystem (all versions before 152.0.7977.65) allows an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to bypass the web origin policy and reach privileged browser pages via a crafted HTML page. This is a chained, second-stage vulnerability - a prior renderer compromise is required - substantially narrowing the realistic attacker pool despite the network-accessible vector. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two sequential preconditions: first, the attacker must have already compromised the Chrome renderer process via a separate, independent vulnerability - this is not a standalone exploit path; second, the target user must render or visit a crafted HTML page (user interaction required, UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor-assigned CVSS 4.3 score (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) encodes a medium-severity network-reachable flaw requiring user interaction, with limited confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability impact. … 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 fixed release per the Chrome stable channel advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0256176589.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
