Google Chrome prior to 54.0.2840.59 for Windows, Mac, and Linux; 54.0.2840.85 for Android incorrectly handled object lifecycles during shutdown, which allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via crafted HTML pages.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Google Chrome memory-handling flaw. A malicious web page could cause affected Chrome versions to read memory outside the intended bounds. It matters mainly for legacy systems still running Chrome before the fixed 2016 releases. Exposure is likely limited to unmanaged, embedded, legacy, or frozen systems running very old Chrome or Chromium-derived packages. Modern auto-updated browsers should not be affected based on the listed fixed versions. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless old browser versions remain in production. Prioritize systems browsing untrusted websites, kiosks, and unmanaged endpoints. Mitigation focus: Update desktop Chrome to 54.0.2840.59 or later.; Update Android Chrome to 54.0.2840.85 or later.; Apply relevant Red Hat or Gentoo browser package advisories where applicable..
