Exploitability

CWE

KEV
KEV Icon
CWE ID Description
CWE-787 The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
CWE-416 The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.

Executive Summary

This is a use-after-free vulnerability in Turbolev, a component of Google Chrome. It occurs when a program tries to use memory that has already been freed, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution within the browser's sandbox. The issue is triggered by a specially crafted HTML page and affects Chrome versions before 156.0.8078.47.

Detection Guidance

Detection of this vulnerability requires checking the installed version of Google Chrome. Compare the version against 156.0.8078.47 or later. On Windows, run 'wmic product where name="Google Chrome" get version' in Command Prompt. On Linux, use 'google-chrome --version' or check via package manager like 'apt list --installed | grep chrome'. If the version is below 156.0.8078.47, the system is vulnerable.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to execute malicious code on your device through a malicious webpage. Since it occurs inside the sandbox, it may bypass some security restrictions, potentially allowing code execution with limited privileges. This could lead to data theft, installation of malware, or unauthorized system access.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code inside the sandbox via crafted HTML pages. Such arbitrary code execution could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, which may violate GDPR's data protection principles or HIPAA's safeguards for protected health information.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update Google Chrome to version 156.0.8078.47 or later. Disable automatic updates temporarily if needed, but prioritize patching. Avoid visiting untrusted websites until the update is applied. Monitor for unusual activity or crashes which may indicate exploitation attempts.
