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
Out of bounds read in ANGLE in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.53 allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

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

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in ANGLE (a graphics abstraction layer used by Chrome) that allows a remote attacker to read memory outside allocated buffers by tricking users into visiting a crafted HTML page. This could potentially expose sensitive memory contents to the attacker.

MitigationUpgrade Google Chrome to version 149.0.7827.53 or later. As a defense-in-depth measure, disable hardware acceleration in Chrome settings to prevent ANGLE from being used.

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. Verify Google Chrome is installed
    Open Chrome and navigate to chrome://settings/help, or check for chrome.exe (Windows), Google Chrome.app (macOS), or google-chrome (Linux) in standard installation directories
    Affected if Google Chrome browser is present on the system
  2. Determine installed Chrome version
    In Chrome address bar, enter chrome://settings/help and note the version number displayed, or run 'google-chrome --version' from command line on Linux
    Affected if Version number shown is lower than 149.0.7827.53
  3. Confirm WebGL/ANGLE graphics feature is in use
    The ANGLE library is used internally by Chrome for WebGL rendering. Visit chrome://gpu and check if 'WebGL' is listed under 'Graphics Feature Status', or any website using WebGL will automatically utilize ANGLE
    Affected if WebGL is enabled and functional in the browser (ANGLE is used by default for WebGL on supported platforms)
  4. Compare version against affected range
    Compare the installed version from step 2 to the affected range: versions prior to 149.0.7827.53 are vulnerable
    Affected if Installed version is less than 149.0.7827.53

User is affected if Google Chrome is installed with a version lower than 149.0.7827.53 and WebGL/ANGLE graphics rendering is enabled (default state).
