    🚨 HIGH - Chrome Aura use-after-free heap corruption via malicious file (CVE-2026-15905) A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the Aura UI component of Google Chrome prior to 150.0.7871.128, where freed heap memory can be referenced during file handling. The root cause is a classic use-after-free memory safety flaw leading to heap corruption. An attacker can exploit this by convincing a local user to open or process a crafted malicious file in Chrome, triggering the vulnerable code path without elevated privileges. Successful exploitation can result in high-impact compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, potentially including arbitrary code execution in the Chrome process or a reliable crash/DoS. 👉 Affected: Google Chrome < 150.0.7871.128 | Upgrade to 150.0.7871.128 or later

    Post summary

    Chrome’s Aura UI has a use‑after‑free heap corruption flaw that can be triggered by a crafted file; users should upgrade to 150.0.7871.128 or later to mitigate the vulnerability.
