Analysis

Impact

The flaw is a use‑after‑free bug in Chrome’s GPU component that allows an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to escape the browser sandbox and execute arbitrary code on the host operating system. This vulnerability falls under CWE‑416 and carries the potential for total system compromise.

Affected Systems

Google Chrome browsers with versions earlier than 150.0.7871.47 are affected. Any system running a vulnerable Chrome build remains at risk until the patch is installed.

Risk and Exploitability

Chromium assigns a CVSS score of 9.6 and an EPSS probability of less than 1%. The vulnerability is not referenced in CISA’s KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is a crafted HTML page that could compromise the renderer, which typically requires an attacker to already have compromised the renderer process or deliver malicious content to the user. Given the high impact and the absence of alternative mitigations outside of patching, the threat to exposed systems remains significant.

Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

Upgrade Chrome to at least version 150.0.7871.47 or newer to contain the use‑after‑free bug.
Ensure Chrome runs under least‑privilege accounts and that OS‑level sandboxing or application whitelisting limits damage from a sandbox escape.
Educate and train users to recognize and avoid malicious web content that could deliver crafted HTML pages, as the vulnerability requires exploitation via the renderer process.
