## Technical details

The vulnerability is a buffer overflow in the WebGL graphics rendering component of Google Chrome on Android. The flaw allows a remote attacker to trigger memory corruption by crafting a malicious HTML page that exploits improper bounds checking in WebGL operations. No authentication or user interaction beyond viewing the page is required; the attack is triggered automatically when the page loads. Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution outside the Chrome sandbox, granting the attacker full device-level access. The vulnerability was patched in Chrome version 153.0.8010.52 released on September 17, 2026.
