# Integer overflow in Skia in Google Chrome prior to 112.0.5615.137 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the…

Google Chrome's Skia graphics library has an integer overflow that lets an attacker who already controls the renderer process escape the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page. CISA lists it as actively exploited in the wild.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## Affected

- vendor:Google Chromium Skia affected ? fixed ?
- vendor:google chrome affected < 112.0.5615.137 fixed 112.0.5615.137
- vendor:debian linux affected = 11.0 fixed ?
- vendor:fedoraproject fedora affected = 36 fixed ?
- vendor:fedoraproject fedora affected = 37 fixed ?
- vendor:fedoraproject fedora affected = 38 fixed ?

## How to check

Check the installed Chrome version (chrome://settings/help) and compare it to the fixed release in the vendor advisory.

## Fix

Update Google Chrome (and ChromeOS, Android WebView, or Flutter builds that bundle Skia) to a release that includes the Skia fix; CISA says to apply updates per vendor instructions.

## From the sources

Google Chromium Skia contains an integer overflow vulnerability that allows a remote attacker, who has compromised the renderer process, to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. This vulnerability affects Google Chrome and ChromeOS, Android, Flutter, and possibly other products.

CISA required action: Apply updates per vendor instructions.
