CVE-2026-11628: Use after free in Google Chrome
Use after free in Ozone in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.103 allowed a local attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via physical access to the device. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a use-after-free condition in the Ozone subsystem of Google Chrome before version 149.0.7827.103. A local attacker with physical access could leverage this flaw to cause heap corruption, which may lead to arbitrary code execution or other security impacts. The issue was publicly disclosed and patched by Google in a stable channel update.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow a local attacker with physical access to corrupt memory on the affected system, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or system compromise. However, exploitation requires physical access, limiting remote attack feasibility. No known exploits in the wild have been reported at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
A fix is available in Google Chrome version 149.0.7827.103 and later. Users should update to this version or newer to remediate the vulnerability. Since this is not a cloud service, remediation depends on applying the vendor's update. Refer to the official Google Chrome stable channel update advisory for detailed patch information.
