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 · unedited

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 confidence

Use-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.

MitigationUpdate Google Chrome to version 141.0.7390.107 or later to patch the vulnerability.

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. Identify installed Google Chrome version
    Open 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
  2. Confirm Safe Browsing is enabled
    Navigate to chrome://settings/security in the browser and locate the Safe Browsing setting
    Affected if Safe Browsing is turned ON (the vulnerability exists within this feature, so it is only exploitable when Safe Browsing is enabled)
  3. Check for renderer process sandbox status
    Navigate to chrome://sandbox in the browser to view the renderer sandbox status
    Affected 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.

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.
