CVE-2026-2441Chrome — use-after-free in style handling

Google Chrome before 145.0.7632.75 uses memory after releasing it while handling style sheets, so a crafted page corrupts the heap and runs code inside the browser's sandbox. Proof-of-concept code is public.

YOUR NEXT MOVE

Update Chrome and other Chromium browsers to 145.0.7632.75 or later now; a working proof of concept is published, so do not defer the restart.
