Sandbox escape via FileSystem authorization failure
Published Sep 1, 2026 · Updated Sep 3, 2026
Incorrect authorization in Google Chrome's FileSystem before 152.0.7977.75 allows remote attackers to execute code outside the sandbox. The public record identifies an authorization failure in FileSystem, but Google has restricted the issue details and has not disclosed the specific check or operation that mishandles the crafted HTML page. Exploitation requires social engineering to induce page interaction; successful exploitation escapes Chrome's sandbox and executes arbitrary code.
