AI Analysis

Impact

A use‑after‑free flaw exists in the Ozone layer of Google Chrome, allowing a maliciously crafted HTML page to trigger unintended use of freed memory and execute arbitrary native code. The weakness is classified as CWE‑416, and the Chromium security team rates it as a critical flaw that can compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system on which the browser runs, potentially enabling full system takeover.

Affected Systems

Google Chrome versions prior to 150.0.7871.47 on desktop platforms contain a use‑after‑free flaw in the Ozone layer that can be triggered by a crafted HTML page, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Risk and Exploitability

The EPSS score of <1% indicates a very low probability of exploitation. The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates high severity, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. An attacker can trigger the vulnerability by delivering a crafted HTML page that is opened in Chrome; when the page is rendered, the use‑after‑free causes execution of arbitrary native code with the privileges of the Chrome process.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Google Chrome to version 150.0.7871.47 or later to apply the Ozone use‑after‑free fix.
  • Configure Chrome to enforce strict sandboxing and restrict loading of untrusted or local content to mitigate potential exploitation if upgrade is delayed.
  • Monitor and apply web‑filtering or endpoint protection to detect malicious payloads.
