Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in the drawLayersInternal function of SkiaRenderEngine.cpp, where there is a possible way to access the GPU cache through side channel information disclosure.

It allows an attacker to gain local escalation of privilege without needing any additional execution privileges or user interaction.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to local escalation of privilege, meaning an attacker with limited access could gain higher privileges on the affected system.

Since no user interaction or additional execution privileges are needed, it could be exploited silently to compromise system security.
