CVE-2026-13025: Insufficient validation of untrusted input in Google Chrome
Race in DevTools in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.197 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-13025 describes a race condition in the DevTools of Google Chrome versions prior to 149.0.7827.197. This flaw allows a remote attacker, who has already compromised the renderer process, to potentially perform a sandbox escape by delivering a specially crafted HTML page. The sandbox escape could lead to elevated privileges or broader system compromise. The vulnerability is rated as high severity by Chromium security. The vendor advisory is linked but does not explicitly state patch or remediation status in the provided data.
Potential Impact
If exploited, this vulnerability could allow an attacker with control over the renderer process to escape the Chrome sandbox, potentially leading to execution of code outside the browser's restricted environment. This increases the risk of system compromise beyond the browser context. No known exploits in the wild have been reported at the time of this analysis.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0482630350.html for current remediation guidance. Users should update to Chrome version 149.0.7827.197 or later once confirmed patched. Until then, limiting exposure to untrusted content and restricting access to the renderer process can reduce risk.
