Sandbox escape via Views use-after-free
Published Jul 30, 2026 · Updated Jul 30, 2026
Use after free in Google Chrome Views before 151.0.7922.72 allows remote attackers to escape the sandbox from a compromised renderer via crafted HTML. The public record identifies Views and the use-after-free class but does not disclose the freed object, stale reference, or code path because the linked issue is restricted. Exploitation requires user interaction with attacker-controlled HTML and prior compromise of the renderer process; success crosses the renderer sandbox boundary.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
