Exploitability

CWE

KEV

CWE ID	Description
CWE-203	The product behaves differently or sends different responses under different circumstances in a way that is observable to an unauthorized actor.
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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.

Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a use-after-free issue in Google Chrome's Media component. It occurs when a program tries to use memory that has already been freed, potentially allowing a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code within the browser's sandbox. The attack requires a specially crafted HTML page to trigger the flaw.

Detection Guidance

This vulnerability is specific to Google Chrome versions prior to 156.0.8078.47. Detection involves checking the installed Chrome version. On Windows, run: wmic product where "name like 'Google Chrome'" get version. On Linux, run: google-chrome --version. If the version is below 156.0.8078.47, the system is vulnerable.

Impact Analysis

If exploited, this vulnerability could allow an attacker to run malicious code on your device through a malicious webpage. Since it executes inside the sandbox, the impact is limited but could still lead to unauthorized actions, data theft, or further compromise of the browser or system.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code inside the sandbox via crafted HTML pages, which could lead to unauthorized data access or manipulation. Such risks may impact compliance with GDPR (data protection) and HIPAA (health information security) by potentially exposing sensitive user data or violating confidentiality requirements.

Mitigation Strategies

Update Google Chrome to version 156.0.8078.47 or later to address the use after free vulnerability in Media.
