Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the attacker to have ALREADY compromised the Chrome renderer process on Android (per the description's explicit precondition), after which a crafted HTML page triggers an uninitialized GPU resource to read memory outside the sandbox. This is specific to Google Chrome on Android prior to version 155.0.8059.39. Limiting factors: it is not a standalone entry point - a separate renderer-compromise vulnerability is a hard prerequisite; the victim must load attacker-controlled content (UI:R); impact is confined to information disclosure (no code execution, integrity, or availability loss); and versions at or above 155.0.8059.39 are patched.

Impact

This is a moderate, chain-dependent vulnerability rather than a standalone priority. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.7 (Medium) reflects limited confidentiality-only impact (C:L/I:N/A:N) with a scope change (S:C) representing the sandbox boundary crossing. Critically, the CVSS vector lists PR:N (no privileges) and AV:N (network), but the description explicitly states the attacker must have 'already compromised the renderer process' - a significant precondition the base vector does not capture, so the AV:N/PR:N signals overstate standalone exploitability. In practice this is a sandbox-escape primitive useful only as the second stage of a multi-bug exploit chain. Corroborating signals align with low real-world urgency: EPSS is 0.24% (13th percentile), there is no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit code is identified. Google rated it Medium severity, consistent with an information-leak sandbox weakness rather than full RCE. Verdict: a real but low-priority defense-in-depth bug; patch in normal cadence. Note the conflict explicitly - CVSS implies unauthenticated network exploitation, but the description implies a prerequisite renderer compromise; defenders should treat the stated PR:N as optimistic.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who has already exploited a separate renderer-process vulnerability (e.g., via a malicious web page) uses this uninitialized GPU resource flaw to read memory contents that lie outside the renderer sandbox, harvesting sensitive data such as pointers or other process memory to aid sandbox escape. No public exploit code or active exploitation is identified at time of analysis; realistic use is as one link in a chained browser exploit. Delivery is a crafted HTML page that requires the victim to load it (UI:R).

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 07, 2026

Information disclosure in Google Chrome on Android before 155.0.8059.39 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to read memory outside the GPU sandbox by serving a crafted HTML page. The flaw (CWE-908, use of an uninitialized resource in the GPU path) is a chain-dependent bug rather than a standalone entry point: it requires a separate renderer compromise plus victim interaction to load malicious content, and the impact stops at memory disclosure with no code execution, integrity, or availability loss. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low at 0.24 percent (13th percentile), and Google has released a fix in Chrome 155.0.8059.39 at Chromium severity Medium.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: 155.0.8059.39. Android users should update Chrome through the Play Store or permit auto-update so the installed build reaches 155.0.8059.39 or later, and administrators managing Android fleets should confirm the installed Chrome version and force the update through EMM or MDM policy; details are in the vendor advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/10/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_086471744.html and the upstream issue at https://issues.chromium.org/issues/507351786. Because this bug is not a standalone entry point, mitigations should also target the prerequisite renderer compromise: keep site isolation and renderer-hardening features enabled rather than disabling them for site compatibility (side effect: occasional site breakage), restrict or block untrusted HTML content and unknown links for high-risk user groups (side effect: reduced usability), and avoid weakening the Android app sandbox through custom builds (side effect: loss of vendor-supported configuration). No public exploit code has been identified and there is no evidence of active exploitation (not in CISA KEV), so remediation can follow normal monthly patch cycles rather than emergency response.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Chrome runs web content in a sandboxed renderer process while GPU work is handled by a separate GPU process that holds broader access to system resources, so the sandbox boundary depends on the GPU side correctly validating and initializing anything it receives from renderers. CWE-908 (Use of Uninitialized Resource) means an object or buffer in the GPU handling path was consumed before being properly initialized, so a renderer already controlled by an attacker can craft HTML that causes the GPU component to expose memory that should remain outside the sandbox; this is the type of leak that typically aids an exploit chain (for example address or data disclosure) rather than granting code execution directly. The affected package is identified by the CPE cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and by ENISA EUVD (EUVD-2026-93700), whose affected range pins the issue to Chrome builds below 155.0.8059.39. The CVSS:3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N indicates network reachability, no privileges required, mandatory user interaction, a scope change reflecting impact that crosses a security boundary, and low confidentiality impact only; this aligns with the independent assessment that exploitation is chain-dependent and confined to information disclosure.
