CVE-2022-0799

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 99.0.4844.51

Description The issue is related to insufficient policy enforcement in the Installer component of Google Chrome, allowing a remote attacker to perform local privilege escalation via a crafted offline installer file. This could potentially bypass security restrictions.
