This vulnerability stems from improper memory management within WebRTC, potentially allowing a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code by crafting malicious web content. As Microsoft Edge ingests Chromium, it is also vulnerable. Users of Chrome and Edge are affected. Defenders should apply available patches promptly to mitigate potential exploitation.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"attack-chain\"\u003eAttack Chain\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn attacker crafts a malicious website designed to trigger the WebRTC vulnerability.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe victim visits the malicious website using a vulnerable version of Chrome or Edge.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe website uses JavaScript to initiate a WebRTC session.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe crafted WebRTC data triggers a heap buffer overflow during memory allocation within the WebRTC component.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe overflow overwrites adjacent memory regions on the heap.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker carefully crafts the overflow data to overwrite critical program data or function pointers.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe corrupted data leads to arbitrary code execution within the context of the browser process.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker gains control of the user\u0026rsquo;s browser and potentially the underlying system.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful exploitation of CVE-2026-7339 can lead to arbitrary code execution, allowing an attacker to potentially install malware, steal sensitive information, or take control of the affected system.
