What it means and what to do now: patch path, interim mitigations, and the assume-compromise checklist.
What an attacker gets, and what they’ve been doing with it.
Successful exploitation permits arbitrary code execution within the Chrome sandbox, compromising the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of resources accessible to the affected sandboxed process. The vulnerability does not establish a sandbox escape or full-system compromise.
Patch, then assume compromise.
Upgrade Google Chrome to version 157.0.8103.78 or later and relaunch the browser to activate the update. Administrators should verify that the fixed version is deployed and running across managed devices.
