The vulnerability is an sensitive information from the browser process. This weakness is an uninitialized variable error (CWE-457) and can result in loss of confidentiality.

Affected Systems

Versions of Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.46 are affected. Updating to 150.0.7871.46 or any newer release removes the vulnerability.

Risk and Exploitability

The flaw can be triggered entirely from a remote web page, meaning any site the victim visits could deliver malicious content. The CVSS score of 6.5 categorizes it as medium severity, and the EPSS score of less than 1% indicates a very low likelihood of exploitation.
