CVE-2026-87456Network attack vector

Out-of-sandbox memory disclosure via uninitialized resource

Published Sep 9, 2026 · Updated Sep 9, 2026

Uninitialized resource use in Google Chrome before 153.0.8010.36 allows remote attackers to read memory outside the sandbox. The Media component accesses an uninitialized resource while processing crafted HTML, exposing memory beyond the renderer sandbox boundary. A renderer compromise is required first; the disclosed consequence is memory disclosure, with no reported code execution or data modification.
