Heap corruption via Ozone use-after-free
Published Jun 8, 2026 · Updated Jun 8, 2026
Use-after-free in Ozone in Google Chrome before 149.0.7827.103 on Linux allows remote attackers to corrupt heap memory via crafted HTML. Google identifies Ozone as the affected component but has not disclosed the freed object's lifetime error or the code path that reuses it. A user must load the crafted page; successful exploitation produces heap corruption, while the vendor has not published the resulting action.
