Impact

A use‑after‑free flaw in the Autofill module of Google Chrome for Android allows a remote attacker who can supply a specifically crafted HTML page to potentially escape the browser sandbox. The vulnerability, classified as CWE‑416, arises when memory is freed and then reused, enabling corrupted program state outside the intended sandbox boundaries.

Affected Systems

All Android installations of Google Chrome prior to version 150.0.7871.115 are affected. The vulnerability resides in the Autofill component and applies to all Chrome for Android builds before that revision.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.6 indicates a high severity, while the EPSS score of < 1% suggests a very low probability of exploitation at the time of analysis. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. A likely attack vector would involve delivering the malicious HTML content to the device, for example through a compromised or malicious web page accessed via a phone’s browser. If the conditions are met, an attacker could achieve unauthorized code execution outside the browser sandbox.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Chrome on the Android device to version 150.0.7871.115 or newer, which contains the patch that frees memory safely and removes the corrupt reuse condition.
  • If an immediate update is not possible, disable the Autofill feature in Chrome’s settings to eliminate the use‑after‑free code path.
  • Avoid navigating to untrusted or suspicious websites that might serve malicious HTML content until Chrome can be updated or the feature can be turned off.
