Critical Google Chrome Zero-Day Bug Exploited in the Wild


In a recent and alarming development, a zero-day vulnerability of critical severity has been unearthed in the widely-used Google Chrome browser. This ominous discovery prompted an emergency response from Google, leading to the swift release of Chrome 116’s security update to address the issue. The urgency was underscored by the unsettling revelation that the vulnerability had already been exploited in the wild.

This particular vulnerability was identified as a “heap buffer overflow in WebP,” a critical flaw in the browser’s core functionality. Heap buffer overflows occur when an application writes more data into a memory buffer than it can safely contain. In practical terms, this can lead to the application crashing, which, in turn, opens the door to the possibility of arbitrary code execution. Such an exploit could have severe consequences for affected systems and users.

WebP, the image format at the heart of this vulnerability, plays a crucial role in enhancing web performance. It offers superior lossless and lossy compression for web images, allowing web developers to create smaller yet richer images compared to traditional formats like JPEG and PNG. This, in turn, contributes to a faster and more efficient web experience. WebP is supported by most modern web browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera.
