Google Chromium V8 Type Confusion Vulnerability
Google · Chromium V8
The flaw is a type confusion bug in the V8 JavaScript engine of Google Chrome, which is Google's Chromium V8 component. An attacker who lures a user to a crafted HTML page can execute arbitrary code inside the browser's sandbox, requiring only remote access and user interaction with that page, with no authentication or special configuration needed.
Type Confusion in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 125.0.6422.112 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
