CVE-2026-14044: Use after free in Google Chrome
Use after free in ANGLE in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Low)
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a use-after-free condition (CWE-416) in the ANGLE graphics engine within Google Chrome versions before 150.0.7871.47. Exploitation requires prior compromise of the renderer process and could lead to sandbox escape, allowing an attacker to execute code with elevated privileges. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, scope changed, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vendor advisory is linked but does not explicitly state patch availability or remediation level in the provided data.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to escape the Chrome sandbox, potentially leading to full system compromise or execution of arbitrary code with elevated privileges. The impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability is high as per the CVSS score. However, exploitation requires prior compromise of the renderer process and user interaction.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0175352312.html for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is confirmed, users should exercise caution with untrusted web content and ensure Chrome is updated to the latest available version.
