Event History
Frequently Asked Questions
What access does an attacker need before this issue can be exploited?
The attacker must already have compromised the Chrome renderer process. The flaw can then be triggered using a crafted HTML page to potentially execute code outside the browser sandbox.
Which Chrome versions are affected?
Google Chrome versions prior to 153.0.8010.36 are affected.
What is the practical security impact?
A successful exploit could allow arbitrary code execution outside Chrome's sandbox after renderer-process compromise, weakening a key browser isolation boundary.
