CVE-2026-15119: Inappropriate implementation in Google Chrome
Race in GetUserMedia in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.115 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-2026-15119 is a race condition (CWE-362) in the GetUserMedia feature of Google Chrome versions before 150.0.7871.115. An attacker with control over the renderer process can exploit this race to perform a sandbox escape, which could lead to elevated privileges or further compromise of the host system. The vulnerability requires user interaction (UI:R) and has high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No known exploits are reported in the wild at this time. The vendor advisory linked does not explicitly confirm patch availability or remediation status.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker who has compromised the renderer process to escape the sandbox, potentially leading to full system compromise or unauthorized access beyond the browser sandbox. This impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_01162222768.html for current remediation guidance. Until a patch is confirmed, users should exercise caution with untrusted web content and avoid interacting with suspicious sites.
