A memory corruption flaw in Chrome's ANGLE graphics library lets a remote attacker potentially read memory inside the browser sandbox by tricking a user to a crafted HTML page. Successful exploitation exposes process memory but stays confined by the sandbox. Any user visiting a malicious page with an unpatched Chrome build is affected.
What to do: Update Chrome to 156.0.8078.73 or later; Chrome's auto-update mechanism should deliver the fix, but verify the installed version to confirm.
| Product | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|
| Google Chrome | prior to 156.0.8078.73 | 156.0.8078.73 |
Estimated exposure
massTens of millions unpatched before auto-update completes — Chrome's dominant browser market share; auto-updates mean most installs patch quickly, so unpatched share is limited.
Order-of-magnitude estimate by the model from install counts, market share and public scan data it knows; verify before quoting.
