Incorrect reference resolution in Extensions in Google Chrome prior to 153.0.8010.36 allowed a remote attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via crafted network traffic. (Chromium security severity: Medium)
AnalysisAI
Sandbox-escape remote code execution in Google Chrome's Extensions component (versions prior to 153.0.8010.36) lets a remote attacker potentially run arbitrary code outside the renderer sandbox by delivering crafted network traffic. The root cause is incorrect reference resolution (CWE-706), where a name or reference is resolved to the wrong target. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation targets the Extensions component of Google Chrome versions before 153.0.8010.36 and is triggered via crafted network traffic reaching the browser, requiring no authentication and no user interaction per the CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:N). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The provided CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.0 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H): network-reachable, no privileges, no user interaction, scope-changed (sandbox escape), with full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact - but crucially high attack complexity (AC:H), meaning 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 | Vendor-released patch: update Google Chrome to 153.0.8010.36 or later, per the Chrome Stable Channel update (https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/09/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0808145027.html); restart the browser to complete the update since Chrome staged updates apply on relaunch. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all Chrome installations across your organization including corporate endpoints, remote workers' devices, and any BYOD implementations; use endpoint management tools or browser telemetry to identify deployment scope and current versions. …
