Technical details

An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Google Chrome for iOS due to an inappropriate implementation within the application's process handling. The vulnerability allows a local attacker who has physical access to an unlocked device to read sensitive information directly from the application's process memory. This is classified by Chromium as a low-severity issue because it requires physical proximity and access to the hardware. The issue was addressed in version 151.0.7922.72.
