System access restriction bypass via Downloads state validation
Published Sep 29, 2026 · Updated Sep 29, 2026
Google Chrome before 154.0.8037.57 allows remote attackers to bypass system access restrictions via a crafted HTML page processed by Downloads. Google identifies improper state validation in Downloads but has not disclosed the affected state transition or the operation that proceeds incorrectly. The vulnerable browser must process the crafted page; the published record does not establish code execution or broader host access.
