Technical details
A use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability exists in the Messages component of Google Chrome for Android. The flaw is triggered when the browser incorrectly manages memory during the processing of specific message-related events. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by hosting a malicious HTML page and enticing a user to visit it. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code outside of the browser's restricted sandbox environment. The issue is addressed in Chrome version 149.0.7827.53.
