CVE-2026-19137: Use after free in Google Chrome
Use after free in WebGL in Google Chrome on Android prior to 151.0.7922.109 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a use-after-free condition in the WebGL implementation of Google Chrome on Android. Exploitation requires prior compromise of the renderer process and could lead to sandbox escape, increasing the attacker's privileges beyond the renderer sandbox. The affected versions include Chrome on Android prior to 151.0.7922.109. The vendor advisory linked should be consulted for the latest remediation status.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker with control over the renderer process to escape the sandbox, potentially leading to higher privilege code execution on the affected device. This elevates the risk of persistent compromise and broader system impact beyond the browser sandbox.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed from the provided data. Users and administrators should consult the official Google Chrome release blog linked in the vendor advisory for the latest update and remediation instructions. Until confirmed patched, avoid untrusted content that could trigger WebGL rendering in Chrome on affected versions.
