An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-5202 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Google Chrome. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5202/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5202/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-5202","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5202/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-5202","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mwf3-rpq5-x552","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-5202"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Google Chrome browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in Chrome's DIAL registry allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted web content.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Chrome","cpe":[{"product":"chrome","vendor":"google"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"browser/extensions/api/dial/dial_registry.cc in Google Chrome before 54.0.2840.98 on macOS, before 54.0.2840.99 on Windows, and before 54.0.2840.100 on Linux neglects to copy a device ID before an erase() call, which causes the erase operation to access data that that erase operation will destroy.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Use after free in chromium-browser","id":"CVE-2016-5202","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"google:chrome","products":["google:chrome"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in Google Chrome prior to 55.0.2883.75 for Mac, Windows and Linux, and 55.0.2883.84 for Android","id":"CVE-2016-5203"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Google Chrome prior to 54.0.2840.100 for Linux, and 54.0.2840.99 for Windows, and 54.0.2840.98 for Mac","id":"CVE-2016-5201"},"products":["chromium-browser"],"published":"2019-10-25","related":[{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chromium GPU Heap Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-4135","kev_date_added":"2022-11-28","published":"2022-11-25"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chrome Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2020-16017","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-01-08"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chrome for Android UI Heap Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2020-16010","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-11-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Google Chromium V8 Out of Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-87491","kev_date_added":"2026-09-09","published":"2026-09-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Google Chromium V8 Type Confusion","id":"CVE-2026-85046","kev_date_added":"2026-09-04","published":"2026-09-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Google Chromium V8 Out-of-Bounds Read and Write","id":"CVE-2026-11645","kev_date_added":"2026-06-09","published":"2026-06-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Google Dawn Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2026-5281","kev_date_added":"2026-04-01","published":"2026-04-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["chromium-browser"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in Chrome's DIAL registry allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted web content.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5202/"}
