Technical details

A sandbox escape vulnerability exists in the Skia graphics component of Google Chrome for Android. The flaw is categorized as an 'inappropriate implementation' that can be triggered via a specially crafted HTML page. An attacker who has already achieved code execution within the sandboxed renderer process can leverage this vulnerability to bypass the sandbox boundary and execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the browser process or the underlying operating system. This is a multi-stage attack requiring an initial renderer compromise. Google has addressed this in version 148.0.7778.216.
