Use after free in Views in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker leveraging social engineering to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Google Chrome desktop before 152.0.7977.65 lets a remote attacker escape the browser sandbox by luring a victim to a crafted HTML page, exploiting a use-after-free in the Views UI framework to run arbitrary code with the browser process's privileges. The CVSS 9.6 score reflects a scope-changing sandbox escape (S:C), though Google rated the Chromium security severity only Medium and requires user interaction (visiting a malicious page). …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the victim to actively visit or open an attacker-controlled crafted HTML page (CVSS UI:R, described as social engineering), so it is not fully automatable and cannot fire against a target with no user action. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals conflict and should be weighed carefully. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker crafts a malicious HTML page and uses social engineering (phishing email, malicious ad, or lured link) to get a victim running a vulnerable Chrome build to open it. The page triggers the use-after-free in the Views component, corrupts memory in the browser process, and executes arbitrary code outside the renderer sandbox on the victim's machine. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 152.0.7977.65 - upgrade Chrome to 152.0.7977.65 or later on all desktop platforms and restart the browser to load the fix, as documented in Google's Chrome Releases advisory (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0256176589.html). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
