Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-87435 is an information leak vulnerability in the ControlledFrame component of Google Chrome before version 153.0.8010.36. A remote attacker with control over the renderer process can exploit this flaw by delivering a specially crafted HTML page to extract sensitive information.
