A missing authorization vulnerability in the FileSystem component of Google Chrome prior to version 153.0.8010.36 allows a remote attacker who has compromised the renderer process to access cross-origin data via a crafted HTML page. This vulnerability is classified with medium severity by Chromium security. No CVSS score or patch information is currently available.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-87611 describes a missing authorization issue in the FileSystem feature of Google Chrome versions before 153.0.8010.36. An attacker who has already compromised the renderer process can exploit this flaw by crafting a malicious HTML page to obtain data from other origins, bypassing same-origin policy protections. The vulnerability is linked to CWE-862 (Missing Authorization). There is no public information about patches or exploits in the wild at this time.
Potential Impact
If exploited, this vulnerability allows an attacker with control over the renderer process to access cross-origin data, potentially leading to unauthorized data disclosure. The impact is limited to scenarios where the renderer process is already compromised, reducing the attack surface. No known active exploitation has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should apply general security best practices to prevent renderer process compromise, as this vulnerability requires such a compromise to be exploitable.
