Impact

The vulnerability is a race condition in CacheStorage in Google Chrome before version 155.0.8059.39. It allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to read memory outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page, potentially exposing sensitive data stored in memory. The weakness is identified as CWE-367.

Affected Systems

Affected is Google Chrome for all platforms. The vulnerable version is any release prior to 155.0.8059.39. The issue applies to all desktop Chrome builds.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 4.7 and the EPSS score is < 1%, but Chromium listed the severity as Medium, indicating a moderate threat. Exploitation requires the attacker to first compromise the renderer process; once that occurs the attacker can read out‑of‑sandbox memory with relatively low effort. This vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is a malicious web page that triggers the cache race after the renderer has been compromised.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to Chrome 155.0.8059.39 or later to apply the race condition fix
  • If an update is not yet available, apply an enterprise policy to block CacheStorage access or install a browser extension that disables the storage API to reduce exposure
  • Restrict browser usage to trusted sites and redirect users away from malicious web pages that could exploit renderer compromise until the patch is applied
