Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to break out of the Chrome sandbox, potentially gaining broader access to the underlying operating system. The vulnerability is rated High severity by the Chromium security team. A fix has been issued in Chrome stable channel version 151.0.7922.72 for desktop.
