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. Check installed Chrome version
    Open Google Chrome, click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner, navigate to Help > About Google Chrome, or directly go to chrome://settings/help to see the current version number
    Affected if The displayed version is below 145.0.7632.45
  2. Verify version via command line
    Run 'chrome --version' in command prompt or terminal, or check the file properties of chrome.exe in the Chrome installation directory
    Affected if The reported version number is less than 145.0.7632.45

If the installed Google Chrome version is lower than 145.0.7632.45, the browser is vulnerable to cross-origin information disclosure via the Animation component.
