AI Analysis

Impact

A use‑after‑free flaw in Skia, Chrome’s 2D HTML page. The weakness, identified as CWE‑416, may allow an attacker to break the renderer sandbox and execute code with higher privileges on the host.

Affected Systems

Chrome versions older than 150.0.7871.46 on all supported operating systems are affected. Any machine running a vulnerable Chrome release is at risk until it receives the latest stable channel update.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 9.6 and an EPSS score of < 1%, indicating a very low but nonzero probability of exploitation. It is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The likely attack vector involves a crafted HTML page delivered over the Internet; a user who opens such a page with the vulnerable browser could forfeit sandbox protection and run arbitrary code.
