Impact
A flaw in Google Chrome, classified as CWE‑602, allows a malicious Chrome Extension to read sensitive data from the browser’s process memory. This information exposure enables an attacker to obtain potentially confidential information that should be protected within the browser process.
Affected Systems
Google Chrome versions released before 150.0.7871.47 are affected. Any user who installs a malicious extension on those builds could be exposed to the vulnerability.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score is 6.5. The EPSS score indicates an exploitation probability of less than 1%, suggesting a very low but nonzero likelihood of exploitation. The vulnerability is not currently listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The likely attack vector requires a user to install a malicious extension, which could be mitigated through user education and policy controls. If a user is tricked, memory leakage via DevTools can occur.
