CVE-2024-10487
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedOut of bounds write in Dawn in Google Chrome prior to 130.0.6723.92 allowed a remote attacker to perform out of bounds memory access via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceOut-of-bounds write vulnerability in Dawn (Google's WebGPU implementation) in Google Chrome prior to version 130.0.6723.92. A remote attacker can exploit this by tricking a user into visiting a crafted HTML page, allowing memory corruption and potential code execution.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Check installed Chrome versionOpen Chrome, click the three-dot menu > Help > About Google Chrome. The version number is displayed on this page.Affected if Version shown is less than 130.0.6723.92
-
Confirm WebGPU access is possibleWebGPU is enabled by default in Chrome. To verify, visit chrome://gpu/ and look for 'WebGPU' in the 'Graphics Feature Status' list. If it shows 'Hardware accelerated' or 'Software only, not hardware accelerated', WebGPU is available.Affected if WebGPU is listed as available (not explicitly disabled via policy)
-
Determine user exposureConsider whether users in your environment have the ability to visit arbitrary web pages. This vulnerability is triggerable via a crafted HTML page, so any user who can browse the web is potentially exposed.Affected if Users can browse arbitrary websites and Chrome version is below 130.0.6723.92
You are affected if Chrome is installed at a version lower than 130.0.6723.92 and WebGPU is not explicitly disabled.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped130.0.6723.92
Upgrade Google Chrome to version 130.0.6723.92 or later. For systems where immediate patching is not feasible, disable WebGPU via Chrome enterprise policies or consider network-level restrictions until patching can be completed.
130.0.6723.92 or later
- Open Google Chrome browser
- Click the three-dot menu icon in the top-right corner
- Select 'Help' and then 'About Google Chrome'
- The browser will check for updates and automatically download version 130.0.6723.92 or later
- Click 'Relaunch' to restart Chrome and apply the update
