VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 146.0.7680.178 Chromium-based browsers (affected versions not specified)
Description A use-after-free issue exists in Dawn, the WebGPU layer of Chromium. This flaw can be triggered by a remote attacker using a specially crafted HTML page. If the attacker has already compromised the renderer process, they can achieve arbitrary code execution. This issue has been observed in real-world attacks and is often used as part of multi-stage exploit chains to escape the browser sandbox and compromise the host system.
Recommendations Update to version 146.0.7680.178 or later. Apply vendor-specific updates for other Chromium-based browsers. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling WebGPU or hardware acceleration and restrict access to untrusted web content.
