Descriptions

Use after free in WebCodecs in Google Chrome prior to 123.0.6312.86 allowed a remote attacker to perform arbitrary read/write via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

Use after free en WebCodecs en Google Chrome anteriores a 123.0.6312.86 permitía a un atacante remoto realizar lectura/escritura arbitraria a través de una página HTML manipulada. (Severidad de seguridad de Chrome: alta)

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Google Chrome. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the implementation of the VideoFrame API. By performing actions in JavaScript, an attacker can cause a pointer to be reused after it has been freed. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process at low integrity.

Security issues were discovered in Chromium, which could result in the execution of arbitrary code, denial of service or information disclosure.
