CVE-2026-19154: Use after free in Google Chrome
Use after free in Skia 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 Skia library within 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 are those before 151.0.7922.109. The vendor advisory link is provided but does not specify if an official fix has been released or if temporary mitigations exist.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker with control over the renderer process to escape the sandbox, potentially leading to elevated privileges and further compromise of the device. This increases the severity of an already compromised renderer process.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/08/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_01193673229.html for current remediation guidance. Until official fixes are confirmed, users should apply updates promptly once available.
