AI Analysis

Impact

A use-after-free flaw in Google Chrome’s InterestGroups implementation permits an attacker to execute arbitrary code inside the browser’s sandbox when a crafted HTML page is opened. The vulnerability exists in Chrome versions prior to 149.0.7827.103 and is classified as high severity. It does not allow direct access outside the sandbox, but it does enable arbitrary code to run with the privileges of the browser process.

Affected Systems

All users running Google Chrome for desktop on any supported operating system with a version earlier than 149.0.7827.103 are affected. The vulnerability is present in the Chromium source used to build the stable channel of Chrome.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates high severity, and the lack of an EPSS score suggests that no current data is available about exploit prevalence. The flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog and no public exploits have been reported. Exploitation requires an attacker to deliver a malicious HTML page to a user, after which the use-after-free can be triggered to run code within the browser sandbox.

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update Google Chrome to version 149.0.7827.103 or later on all affected systems.
  • Ensure that the operating system and desktop environment receive and apply any necessary updates that are required to support the newer Chrome version.
  • Implement or enforce web filtering or site-blocking controls to restrict access to sites that may host malicious HTML content until the browser update is applied.
