CVE-2026-87527: Buffer overflow in Google Chrome
Buffer overflow in WebGL in Google Chrome prior to 153.0.8010.36 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-87527 is a buffer overflow vulnerability (CWE-122) in the WebGL implementation of Google Chrome before version 153.0.8010.36. Exploiting this vulnerability enables remote attackers to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox environment by using a specially crafted HTML page. This could lead to full compromise of the affected system through code execution beyond the browser's security boundaries. The vulnerability is rated critical by Chromium security, but no CVSS score or detailed vendor advisory is provided in the input data.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation can result in arbitrary code execution outside the sandbox, potentially allowing an attacker to gain control over the affected system. This represents a critical security risk as it bypasses browser sandbox protections.
Mitigation Recommendations
A fix is available in Google Chrome version 153.0.8010.36 and later. Users and administrators should update to this version or later to remediate the vulnerability. Since this is not a cloud service, remediation depends on applying the browser update. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed by a vendor advisory in the provided data; verify with official Google Chrome security bulletins for confirmation.
