Users should update Google Chrome on Linux to version 150.0.7871.128 or later once the fix is officially released. Until then, avoid interacting with untrusted web content that may trigger the vulnerability.
Description
A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the Ozone component of Google Chrome on Linux versions prior to 150.0.7871.128. This flaw allows a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption by convincing a user to perform specific UI gestures on a crafted HTML page. The vulnerability has been assigned a high severity rating by Chromium security.
Impact
Successful exploitation could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service by corrupting the heap memory of the affected browser process. This compromises confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
