Anyone running Google Chrome before 157.0.8103.38 is exposed, as the flaw is in the browser core. Exploitation requires a renderer compromise first, so the flaw is a second-stage escape rather than a standalone entry point. Systems that have already updated Chrome or run other browsers can skip it.
