| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Google Chrome versions prior to 93.0.4577.82
Description
The issue is related to a use after free vulnerability in the Selection API component of Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge browsers, which can be exploited by a remote attacker using a specially crafted HTML page, potentially leading to heap corruption or arbitrary code execution. The attacker must convince the user to visit a malicious website to exploit this issue.
Recommendations
For Google Chrome versions prior to 93.0.4577.82, update to version 93.0.4577.82 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of the Selection API until a patch is available. Restrict access to malicious websites to minimize the risk of exploitation.
