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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm Google Chrome is installed
    Check for Chrome executable - on Windows look in Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe, on macOS check /Applications/Google Chrome.app, or on Linux check /usr/bin/google-chrome
    Affected if Chrome is not installed on the system
  2. Determine installed Chrome version
    Open Chrome, click the three-dot menu > Help > About Google Chrome, or navigate to chrome://settings/help, or run 'google-chrome --version' in terminal
    Affected if The displayed version number is lower than 140.0.7339.207
  3. Verify V8 engine is in use
    The vulnerability affects the V8 JavaScript engine which is always active when Chrome renders HTML pages; no additional configuration check needed
    Affected if Chrome processes any HTML content with JavaScript enabled

A system is affected if Google Chrome is installed and its version is below 140.0.7339.207, since the integer overflow in V8 triggers when processing crafted HTML pages with JavaScript.
