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
Uninitialized Use in GPU in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.47 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to obtain potentially sensitive information from process memory 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

This is an uninitialized memory use vulnerability in the GPU component of Google Chrome. A remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process can exploit this by tricking users into visiting a crafted HTML page, causing the GPU to read and expose uninitialized memory contents back to the attacker, potentially revealing sensitive process memory.

MitigationUpgrade Google Chrome to version 150.0.7871.47 or later to patch the uninitialized use vulnerability in the GPU component.

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 Chrome is installed
    Check for Google Chrome installation - on Windows look in Program Files/Google/Chrome/Application/, on macOS check /Applications/Google Chrome.app/, or on Linux check /opt/google/chrome/ or via package manager
    Affected if Google Chrome is installed on the system
  2. Determine installed Chrome version
    Open Chrome, navigate to chrome://settings/help, or run 'google-chrome --version' on Linux, 'C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --version' on Windows, or 'Info.plist' inspection on macOS
    Affected if Version is displayed as less than 150.0.7871.47
  3. Compare version to affected range
    Compare the installed version number to the affected range: any version before 150.0.7871.47 is vulnerable
    Affected if Installed version is less than 150.0.7871.47 (e.g., 150.0.7871.0, 149.x.x.x, 148.x.x.x, etc.)
  4. Confirm GPU rendering is active
    In Chrome, go to chrome://settings/system and check if 'Use hardware acceleration when available' is enabled, or inspect running Chrome processes for GPU-related activity
    Affected if Hardware acceleration or GPU rendering is enabled and Chrome is actively used - this is the attack surface for the vulnerability

User is affected if Google Chrome is installed with a version number lower than 150.0.7871.47 and the GPU/hardware acceleration feature is enabled.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 150.0.7871.47 or later
Fixed in 150.0.7871.47
Interim mitigation

Upgrade Google Chrome to version 150.0.7871.47 or later to patch the uninitialized use vulnerability in the GPU component.

Recommended fix High confidence

Chrome 150.0.7871.47 or later stable release

  1. Open Google Chrome
  2. Navigate to Chrome Menu > Help > About Google Chrome
  3. Verify the current version number
  4. If the version is lower than 150.0.7871.47, Chrome will automatically check for and install updates
  5. Wait for the update to complete and restart the browser when prompted
  6. After restart, verify the version is 150.0.7871.47 or higher via Help > About Google Chrome
Caveat Routine security update with minimal risk; standard Chrome stable channel update
