CVE-2026-14401: Insufficient validation of untrusted input in Google Chrome
Insufficient validation of untrusted input in ANGLE in Google Chrome on Android prior to 150.0.7871.46 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
This vulnerability arises from insufficient validation of untrusted input within the ANGLE graphics abstraction layer in Google Chrome on Android. An attacker who has compromised the renderer process could exploit this flaw to perform a sandbox escape, increasing the potential impact of an existing compromise. The vulnerability affects Chrome on Android versions before 150.0.7871.46. The vendor advisory linked does not explicitly state the patch status or remediation level, and no CVSS score is assigned.
Potential Impact
If exploited, an attacker with control over the renderer process could escape the sandbox, potentially gaining higher privileges or broader access within the affected system. This elevates the risk of further compromise beyond the renderer process sandbox. The vulnerability is classified as high severity by the Chromium security team. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. The linked Google Chrome stable channel update announcement should be monitored for updates on patch availability. Until a patch is confirmed, users should exercise caution with untrusted content and consider updating to the latest Chrome version once available.
