CVE-2025-11756
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 · uneditedUse after free in Safe Browsing in Google Chrome prior to 141.0.7390.107 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform out of bounds memory access via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
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 confidenceUse-after-free vulnerability in Google Chrome's Safe Browsing feature. A remote attacker who had already compromised the renderer process could exploit a freed memory object via a crafted HTML page, potentially allowing out-of-bounds memory access and further 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.
-
Identify installed Google Chrome versionOpen chrome://version in Chrome or check the application version through your OS (Windows: Help > About Google Chrome, macOS: Chrome menu > About Google Chrome, Linux: google-chrome --version)Affected if The version shown is lower than 141.0.7390.107
-
Confirm Safe Browsing is enabledNavigate to chrome://settings/security in the browser and locate the Safe Browsing settingAffected if Safe Browsing is turned ON (the vulnerability exists within this feature, so it is only exploitable when Safe Browsing is enabled)
-
Check for renderer process sandbox statusNavigate to chrome://sandbox in the browser to view the renderer sandbox statusAffected if Sandbox is disabled for renderer processes (the attacker needs renderer compromise as a prerequisite, so a disabled sandbox increases exposure)
You are affected if you are running Google Chrome version below 141.0.7390.107 with Safe Browsing enabled.
