CVE-2026-87628 is a critical use-after-free vulnerability in the Cast component of Google Chrome prior to version 153.0.8010.36. Improper lifetime management of Cast-related memory can permit a nearby network attacker to trigger use of a freed object through crafted network traffic, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution outside Chrome's sandbox.
