AI Analysis

Impact

Use‑after‑free vulnerability in the Omnibox component of Google Chrome on Android allows a remote attacker to induce a user to perform specific UI gestures on a crafted HTML page in order to trigger heap corruption. The flaw can destabilize the browser or potentially allow further exploitation, but the advisory does not confirm denial of service or full compromise. The impact is therefore limited to corruption of application memory and potential indirect compromise of the device through subsequent flaws.

Affected Systems

Google Chrome for Android versions earlier than 150.0.7871.47 are affected; the build starting at 150.0.7871.47 contains the fix that removes the use‑after‑free condition.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates high severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a very low but non‑zero exploitation probability. The vulnerability requires a user to open a crafted page and perform specific Omnibox gestures, implying a user‑interaction attack vector. The issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, and no confirmed remote code execution path is documented, meaning the exploitation remains constrained to the described conditions.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Chrome to version 150.0.7871.47 or later to apply the patch for the use‑after‑free flaw.
  • If an update is not yet available, advise users not to interact with URLs that might trigger the required Omnibox gestures, and consider disabling the Omnibox or using a minimal‑UI mode.
  • Enable Chrome’s Safe Browsing and Site Isolation features to limit the impact of untrusted content while waiting for the official patch.
  • For managed environments, enforce an automatic update policy or restrict access to the affected browser versions until the vulnerability is mitigated.
