by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2026_05_stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0841193308 advisory.

  - Use after free in DOM in Google Chrome on prior to 148.0.7778.179 allowed a remote attacker to execute
    arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)
    (CVE-2026-9126)

  - Use after free in WebRTC in Google Chrome on Linux prior to 148.0.7778.179 allowed a remote attacker to
    execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical) (CVE-2026-9111)

  - Inappropriate implementation in UI in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 148.0.7778.179 allowed a remote
    attacker who had compromised the renderer process to perform UI spoofing via a crafted HTML page.
    (Chromium security severity: Critical) (CVE-2026-9110)

  - Use after free in GPU in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 148.0.7778.179 allowed a remote attacker to
    execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
    (CVE-2026-9112)

  - Out of bounds read in GPU in Google Chrome on Mac prior to 148.0.7778.179 allowed a remote attacker to
    perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
    (CVE-2026-9113)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
