CVE-2026-17702: Inappropriate implementation in Google Chrome
CVE-2026-17702 is a vulnerability in Google Chrome's Skia component prior to version 151.0.7922.72. It allows a remote attacker who has compromised the renderer process to leak cross-origin data via a crafted HTML page. The vulnerability has a low CVSS score of 3.1 and is classified as low severity. No official patch or remediation level is explicitly stated in the vendor advisory, but the affected versions are prior to 151.0.7922.72. There are no known exploits in the wild.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves an inappropriate implementation in the Skia graphics library used by Google Chrome before version 151.0.7922.72. It enables a remote attacker, who already has control over the renderer process, to leak data across origins by crafting a malicious HTML page. The issue is identified as CWE-346 (Inadequate Verification of Data Authenticity). The CVSS 3.1 base score is 3.1, reflecting low impact with network attack vector, high attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope, and low confidentiality impact. The vendor advisory linked does not explicitly confirm a patch or remediation status.
Potential Impact
The impact is limited to potential cross-origin data leakage by an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process. There is no reported impact on integrity or availability. The confidentiality impact is low, and no known exploitation in the wild has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Users should update to Chrome version 151.0.7922.72 or later once available. Until then, no specific mitigation steps are provided by the vendor advisory.
