CVE-2023-7012

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 117.0.5938.62

Description The issue is related to insufficient data validation in Permission Prompts, which can be exploited by a remote attacker to install a malicious app and potentially perform a sandbox escape using a specially crafted file. This could allow the attacker to execute code outside the isolated software environment.

Recommendations For versions prior to 117.0.5938.62, update to version 117.0.5938.62 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the installation of apps from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the Permission Prompt Handler component until the issue is resolved.
