CVE-2026-13935
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 · uneditedSide-channel information leakage in ComputePressure in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker to leak cross-origin data 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 confidenceA side-channel information leakage vulnerability in Google Chrome's ComputePressure API (used to monitor system resource usage) allowed a remote attacker to leak cross-origin data by tricking a user into visiting a crafted HTML page. The attack exploits timing differences or pressure state observations to infer information from other origins.

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.
-
Verify Google Chrome is installedLocate Chrome executable: On Windows check C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe or C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe; On macOS check /Applications/Google Chrome.app; On Linux check /opt/google/chrome/chrome or /usr/bin/google-chromeAffected if Chrome browser is present on the system
-
Determine installed Chrome versionOpen chrome://version in the Chrome browser address bar, or run 'google-chrome --version' from command line on Linux, or right-click the Chrome executable and select Properties > Details to view File VersionAffected if Cannot determine version - verification cannot be completed
-
Compare version against affected rangeCompare the installed version number to the affected range: any version below 150.0.7871.47 is vulnerable. Chrome versions are formatted as major.minor.build.patch (e.g., 149.0.2623.112 is below 150.0.7871.47)Affected if Installed version is less than 150.0.7871.47 (e.g., 149.x.x.x, 148.x.x.x, etc.)
-
Verify ComputePressure API is accessibleThe ComputePressure API is a web API enabled by default in vulnerable Chrome versions. No explicit configuration flag exists to disable it. To test if a specific page can access it, open Developer Tools (F12), go to Console, and run: if (window.computePressure) console.log('API available'); else console.log('API not available')Affected if ComputePressure API is available in the browser (this is the default state in vulnerable versions)
The environment is affected if Google Chrome version is below 150.0.7871.47 and the user can browse the web, since the ComputePressure API side-channel can be exploited through any visited crafted HTML page.

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 · scoped150.0.7871.47
Update Google Chrome to version 150.0.7871.47 or later to patch the ComputePressure side-channel. In enterprise environments, deploy the browser update via centralized patch management and verify compliance.
Chrome 150.0.7871.47 or later
- Open Chrome and navigate to chrome://settings/help to check the current version
- If the version is below 150.0.7871.47, click 'Update Google Chrome' to upgrade to the latest version
- Alternatively, wait for Chrome's automatic update to install the patched version
- Restart Chrome after the update completes to apply the fix
