Frequently Asked Questions

1

What does an attacker need before they can exploit this issue?

Exploitation requires the attacker to have already compromised the Chrome renderer process and to use a crafted HTML page. The issue is therefore most relevant in scenarios where a renderer compromise is possible or has already occurred.

2

Which Chrome versions are affected?

The vulnerable condition affects Google Chrome versions prior to 151.0.7922.169. Updating Chrome to 151.0.7922.169 or later addresses the affected version range.

3

What is the security impact of successful exploitation?

A successful exploit can bypass Chrome site isolation after the renderer process has been compromised. This could weaken the separation that site isolation is intended to provide between sites.
