CVE-2026-16804 is a high-severity use-after-free vulnerability in the Input component of Google Chrome affecting versions prior to 150.0.7871.186. The flaw is triggered in browser input handling and can be reached through a crafted HTML page. Available information indicates that exploitation requires the attacker to have already compromised the renderer process, after which the memory corruption condition could be leveraged to escape Chrome’s sandbox. As a use-after-free bug, the vulnerability arises from continued use of memory after it has been freed, creating the possibility of controlled memory corruption and unintended execution flow.
