Google · Google Chrome · CVE-2022-0337
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Google Chrome versions prior to 97.0.4692.71
**Description**
The issue is related to an inappropriate implementation in the File System API of Google Chrome on Windows, allowing a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information via a crafted HTML page. This could potentially give access to user environment variables. The severity of this issue is considered high.
**Recommendations**
For Google Chrome versions prior to 97.0.4692.71, update to version 97.0.4692.71 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the File System Access API until a patch is applied. Avoid using the `Window.showSaveFilePicker()` method in crafted HTML pages until the issue is resolved.
