High CVSS 8.3
CVE-2026-16416
Integer overflow in Chromecast in Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.182 allowed a local attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via malicious network traffic. (Chromium security severity: High)
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable from the adjacent network, without authentication and with no action from the victim. The attack does require particular conditions, which makes it less systematic.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- A computation exceeds the integer type’s range, producing a nonsensical size and a broken allocation.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
