AI Analysis

Impact

Google Chrome’s Bluetooth component lacks proper policy enforcement, enabling an attacker to craft an HTML page that triggers privileged Bluetooth operations without authorization. This is a CWE‑602 weakness that results in privilege escalation within the browser and can potentially affect the underlying operating 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 presently unlikely. The flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Likely attack path involves the 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.

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
