CVE-2026-11653: Insufficient validation of untrusted input in Google Chrome
CVE-2026-11653 is a vulnerability in Google Chrome prior to version 149.0.7827.103 where improper validation of untrusted input in Extensions allowed a remote attacker with control over the renderer process to bypass site isolation using a crafted HTML page. The issue is rated with a medium severity and has a CVSS score of 6.5. No known exploits in the wild have been reported. The vulnerability affects Chrome versions before 149.0.7827.103.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves insufficient validation of untrusted input in the Extensions component of Google Chrome before version 149.0.7827.103. An attacker who has already compromised the renderer process could exploit this flaw by crafting a malicious HTML page to bypass Chrome's site isolation security feature. Site isolation is a critical defense mechanism designed to separate different websites into different processes to prevent data leaks and cross-site attacks. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates the attack requires network access, low attack complexity, no privileges, and user interaction, resulting in a high impact on integrity but no impact on confidentiality or availability.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows an attacker who has compromised the renderer process to bypass site isolation, potentially enabling unauthorized interactions or manipulations across site boundaries within the browser. This could undermine the security guarantees provided by site isolation, increasing the risk of cross-site attacks or data integrity violations. However, the vulnerability does not impact confidentiality or availability directly. No known exploits have been reported in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Google has released Chrome version 149.0.7827.103 which addresses this vulnerability. Users and administrators should update to this version or later to remediate the issue. Since this is a client-side vulnerability in a desktop browser, patching the affected software is the primary mitigation. No additional vendor advisories indicate alternative mitigations or that the issue is already mitigated without patching.
