AI Analysis

Impact

A vulnerability in ANGLE, the graphics abstraction layer used by Google Chrome, leaves a resource uninitialized. When a remote attacker serves a specially crafted HTML page, Chrome can read memory outside its sandbox limits, potentially exposing sensitive information stored in the victim’s process memory, such as passwords, tokens, or other confidential data. The weakness is categorized as CWE‑908.

Affected Systems

Google Chrome running on Windows machines with versions prior to 154.0.8037.92.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.7 indicates a moderate severity, and the EPSS score is not available while the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers can trigger the issue simply by getting users to open a malicious web page in Chrome, so no additional privileges or exploit chain are required. Chromium’s high severity rating suggests significant concern from the Chrome security team.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update Chrome to version 154.0.8037.92 or later, which contains the patch for the uninitialized resource.
  • If an instant upgrade is not feasible, start Chrome with the flag `--disable-angle` or configure the equivalent group policy to prevent ANGLE usage, thereby mitigating the risk of out‑of‑bounds memory reads.
  • Encourage users to avoid opening untrusted web content or implement web filtering controls that block malicious sites capable of delivering the crafted HTML page.
