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 · uneditedOut of bounds read and write in Angle in Google Chrome prior to 147.0.7727.138 allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
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 confidenceOut of bounds memory read/write vulnerability in Google's Angle graphics layer (OpenGL ES translation backend) in Chrome browsers prior to version 147.0.7727.138. A remote attacker can exploit this via a crafted HTML page to potentially escape the browser's sandbox and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

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 installedCheck for Chrome installation in typical locations: Windows (C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe), macOS (/Applications/Google Chrome.app), or Linux (/usr/bin/google-chrome or /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome). Use file system enumeration or package manager queries.Affected if Google Chrome browser is present on the endpoint.
-
Retrieve installed Chrome versionOpen Chrome and navigate to chrome://version, or run 'google-chrome --version' from command line on Linux/Mac, or check 'HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Google Chrome' registry key on Windows.Affected if A version number can be retrieved from the Chrome installation.
-
Compare version against affected rangeParse the retrieved version number (e.g., 147.0.7727.138) and compare numerically against 147.0.7727.138. Any version with major version less than 147, or major=147 with minor less than 7727, or major=147/minor=7727 with build less than 138, is affected.Affected if Installed version is less than 147.0.7727.138 (e.g., 146.x.x.x, 147.0.7727.100, etc.).
The environment is affected if Google Chrome is installed and its version number is lower than 147.0.7727.138.

Update Google Chrome to version 147.0.7727.138 or later to apply the security patch. Organizations should prioritize updating browser installations given the high CVSS score and sandbox escape potential.
Chrome 147.0.7727.138
- Open Chrome browser and navigate to Settings > Help > About Google Chrome
- Chrome will automatically check for available updates
- If version 147.0.7727.138 or later is available, click 'Update Google Chrome'
- Restart the browser to complete the installation of the security update
- Verify the version by returning to About Chrome and confirming the installed version is 147.0.7727.138 or later
- For enterprise-managed devices, consult your IT administrator if automatic updates are disabled
