Google · Google Chrome · CVE-2019-5819
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Google Chrome versions prior to 74.0.3729.108
**Description**
The issue is related to insufficient data validation in developer tools, which can be exploited to compromise data integrity, gain unauthorized access to protected information, and cause a denial of service. A local attacker can execute arbitrary code via a crafted string copied to the clipboard.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 74.0.3729.108, update to version 74.0.3729.108 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the use of developer tools until a patch is applied. Restrict access to sensitive information and clipboard functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation.
