CVE-2021-37969

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 94.0.4606.54

Description The issue is related to an inappropriate implementation in Google Updater in Google Chrome on Windows, which is associated with insecure privilege management. This allows a remote attacker to perform local privilege escalation via a crafted file.
