AI Analysis

Impact

Google Chrome’s Bluetooth subsystem does not enforce the required policy checks, allowing a maliciously crafted HTML page to trigger privileged Bluetooth actions. The flaw, classified as CWE‑602, can allow an attacker to elevate privileges within the browser, potentially affecting the host operating system. The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates a high severity impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.

Affected Systems

All desktop installations of Google Chrome older than version 150.0.7871.47—including Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS—are vulnerable until the user upgrades to the fixed release.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 classifies the flaw as high severity. The EPSS score of less than 1% suggests that widespread exploitation is currently unlikely, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack path involves an attacker hosting a malicious HTML page that the victim loads into Chrome; because the browser does not enforce Bluetooth policy checks, the page can invoke privileged Bluetooth functions, leading to privilege escalation. The weakness is a violation of policy enforcement as identified by CWE‑602.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Google Chrome to version 150.0.7871.47 or newer to apply the policy enforcement fix.
  • If upgrading is not possible, disable Bluetooth features in Chrome settings or enforce an enterprise policy that blocks the affected API.
  • Avoid opening untrusted or malicious HTML pages that could invoke privileged Bluetooth operations.
