Impact
Chrome’s Tint rendering engine contains an inappropriate bounds check that enables a remote attacker to trigger an out‑of‑bounds memory access via a specially crafted HTML page. This flaw can overwrite or read arbitrary memory, potentially allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the client’s machine. The vulnerability has been graded as a high‑severity issue by Chromium security teams.
Affected Systems
The flaw exists in Google Chrome versions released prior to 147.0.7727.138 on all supported operating systems. Users running Chrome 147.0.7727.137 or earlier are affected, regardless of platform.
Risk and Exploitability
The vulnerability is exploitable from a web page, making it a classic drive‑by attack vector. No EPSS score is available, but the high‑severity rating and lack of mitigation mean a motivated attacker could likely succeed against any user who opens the crafted page. The vulnerability is not currently listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, but its potential for remote code execution warrants immediate attention.
