A memory corruption flaw in the Turbolev component of Google Chrome could let a remote attacker execute arbitrary code outside the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page. Exploitation requires only convincing a target to visit a malicious web page. Successful attacks give the attacker code execution on the victim's machine.
What to do: Update Chrome to 156.0.8078.73 or later and restart the browser so the fix takes effect.
| Product | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|
| Google Chrome | prior to 156.0.8078.73 | 156.0.8078.73 |
Estimated exposure
largeMost Chrome users still unpatched — Chrome is the dominant browser but auto-updates; only the small share of users not yet restarted onto the fixed build remains exposed.
Order-of-magnitude estimate by the model from install counts, market share and public scan data it knows; verify before quoting.
