Sandbox escape via WebGL use-after-free
Published Jun 24, 2026 · Updated Jun 24, 2026
Use-after-free in WebGL in Google Chrome for Android before 149.0.7827.197 allows remote attackers to escape its sandbox via crafted HTML. Public records identify WebGL as the affected locus but do not disclose which object is freed or which subsequent access uses the stale reference. A user must load attacker-controlled HTML; successful exploitation crosses the renderer sandbox, while restricted issue details prevent a narrower consequence assessment.
