A vulnerability in the WebView component of Google Chrome on Android prior to version 152.0.7977.65 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox by exploiting an externally controlled reference in the renderer process through a specially crafted HTML page. This poses a significant risk to users of affected devices, particularly in scenarios where untrusted web content is accessed. Organizations and developers relying on these versions should prioritize updates to mitigate potential exploitation.
