CVE-2026-113249
Description
A flaw was found in chromium-browser. Improper input validation in the mobile browser component allows a remote attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code within the application's restricted security environment (sandbox). To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must trick a user into visiting a specially crafted HTML page.
Statement
This vulnerability is rated as an Important impact because processing untrusted web content could enable remote code execution within the client application sandbox, although exploitation requires user interaction to visit a malicious site. Furthermore, the vulnerable mobile subsystem is specific to iOS builds and is neither built nor supported across Red Hat Enterprise Linux releases. Consequently, standard Red Hat enterprise environments do not carry operational risk from this flaw.
Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Access Control
Technical Impact: Bypass Protection Mechanism
In some cases, injectable code controls authentication; this may lead to a remote vulnerability.
Access Control
Technical Impact: Gain Privileges or Assume Identity
Injected code can access resources that the attacker is directly prevented from accessing.
Integrity,Confidentiality,Availability
Technical Impact: Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands
When a product allows a user's input to contain code syntax, it might be possible for an attacker to craft the code in such a way that it will alter the intended control flow of the product. As a result, code injection can often result in the execution of arbitrary code. Code injection attacks can also lead to loss of data integrity in nearly all cases, since the control-plane data injected is always incidental to data recall or writing.
Non-Repudiation
Technical Impact: Hide Activities
Often the actions performed by injected control code are unlogged.
