CVE-2022-1312
CVSS v2.0
10
Critical
| 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 100.0.4896.88
Description
The issue is related to a use after free in storage, 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 be achieved by exploiting the vulnerability with a specially crafted web page, allowing a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Recommendations
For Google Chrome versions prior to 100.0.4896.88, update to version 100.0.4896.88 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the installation of extensions from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation. Restrict access to the
storage module to minimize the risk of exploitation until the issue is resolved.Exploit
