Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 90.0.4430.72

Description The issue is related to a use after free in extensions, which could allow an attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted Chrome Extension if a user is convinced to install a malicious extension. This could impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information.

Recommendations For Google Chrome versions prior to 90.0.4430.72, update to version 90.0.4430.72 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the installation of extensions to trusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation.
