CVE-2026-76040
Use after free in Browser in Google Chrome on on Mac prior to 151.0.7922.169 allowed a remote attacker leveraging social engineering to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 8.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.53%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 43
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1203Exploitation for Client Executionexecution95 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution85 % - Impacto secundario
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation75 %
AV:N + UI:R → T1203 (explotación en cliente). Use-after-free (CWE-416) permite ejecución arbitraria de código fuera del sandbox, logrado mediante página HTML crafted que requiere interacción del usuario. El escape del sandbox implica ejecución con privilegios elevados (impacto secundario T1068).
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
