CVE-2026-13036 is a high-severity use-after-free vulnerability in the Blink rendering engine of Google Chrome prior to version 149.0.7827.197. The flaw arises from incorrect lifetime management of memory in Blink, creating a condition where freed memory can be accessed again during processing of attacker-controlled web content. Google states that a remote attacker can trigger the issue by convincing a target to load a crafted HTML page. Successful exploitation can corrupt memory and enable arbitrary code execution within the browser’s sandboxed renderer context.
