Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-17892 describes an inappropriate implementation in the WebXR component of Google Chrome versions before 151.0.7922.72. This flaw enables a remote attacker to extract potentially sensitive information from process memory by delivering a specially crafted HTML page. The vulnerability has a medium severity rating and a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.5, indicating a network attack vector with low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction needed, and high confidentiality impact without affecting integrity or availability.
