Code execution via Navigation use-after-free
Published Apr 28, 2026 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Use-after-free in Google Chrome Navigation before 147.0.7727.138 allows remote attackers to execute code through a crafted HTML page. The Navigation component accesses memory after the referenced object has been freed, but Google has not disclosed the affected function or object lifecycle. Exploitation requires user interaction with attacker-controlled HTML and grants arbitrary code execution in the browser's security context.
