Impact

Integer overflow in the GPU component of Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.53 allows an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to escape the browser sandbox, potentially giving full system privileges. The flaw stems from an out‑of‑bounds read (CWE‑125) and a signed integer overflow (CWE‑190). If successfully exploited, an attacker could gain confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the host system.

Affected Systems

All versions of Google Chrome older than 149.0.7827.53 running on Windows, macOS or Linux are affected. The vulnerability is tied to GPU acceleration, so any instance where hardware rendering is enabled is vulnerable, independent of the operating system.

Risk and Exploitability

The EPSS score is 0.00068, indicating a very low probability of exploitation in the general population. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog and no public exploits have been reported. Because the flaw requires an attacker to already control the renderer process, the practical risk depends on prior compromise of the browser or a malicious web page. Nevertheless, the potential for a sandbox escape warrants prompt remediation.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Google Chrome to version 149.0.7827.53 or later, which includes the GPU overflow fix.
  • If an upgrade cannot be performed immediately, disable GPU acceleration by launching Chrome with the --disable-gpu flag or by turning off hardware rendering in the settings.
  • Enhance browser hardening by configuring a strict Content Security Policy and monitoring renderer behavior for anomalous activity.
