Process-memory disclosure via V8 type confusion
Published May 14, 2026 · Updated May 14, 2026
Type confusion in V8 in Google Chrome before 148.0.7778.168 allows remote attackers to read process memory through a crafted HTML page. Google has not published the affected V8 operation or how attacker-controlled page content causes the engine to use an incompatible type. A user must open the crafted page; the published impact is limited to potentially sensitive process-memory disclosure, with no reported modification or service interruption.
