Google Skia Integer Overflow Vulnerability
Google · Chromium Skia
Summary
The flaw is an integer overflow in Skia, the graphics library bundled in Google Chromium, affecting Google Chrome builds prior to 119.0.6045.199. An attacker who has already compromised the renderer process and can get a malicious file processed could potentially escape the sandbox, and this requires the victim to take an action such as opening or viewing that file.
Official description · NVD
Integer overflow in Skia in Google Chrome prior to 119.0.6045.199 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a malicious file. (Chromium security severity: High)
