Analysis

Impact

Insufficient policy enforcement in the Serial API of Google Chrome allows a remote attacker to exploit a privileged browser process, leading to privilege escalation. The flaw, classified as CWE‑602, can compromise system integrity by allowing an attacker to elevate privileges and potentially execute arbitrary code on the host.

Affected Systems

Google Chrome installations older than version 150.0.7871.47 on any desktop operating system are affected. The vulnerability is triggered by loading a malicious page and applies regardless of the user’s current privilege level.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 denotes high severity, yet the EPSS score is below 1 % and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The attack vector is remote via a crafted HTML page, and based on the description it is inferred that any user who opens such a page, whether from the internet or a local file, could be impacted. Prompt remediation is recommended to prevent unauthorized privilege elevation.

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