Chromium CVE‑2026‑95356: Use‑After‑Free in WindowDialog

A use‑after‑free flaw in Chromium’s WindowDialog component (CVE‑2026‑95356) can enable arbitrary code execution via malicious web content. Microsoft Edge, which incorporates Chromium, is affected until the patch is applied. Defenders should update to the latest Edge release and monitor for anomalous browser activity.

What happened

A use‑after‑free flaw was discovered in Chromium’s WindowDialog component (CVE‑2026‑95356). The defect can allow an attacker to trigger arbitrary code execution when a malicious web page interacts with the dialog.

Impact

All Chromium‑based browsers—including Microsoft Edge—are affected until the patch is applied. The vulnerability could be leveraged to run code with the privileges of the user’s browser process.

What to do

Update Microsoft Edge to the latest release; the Chromium base already contains the fix. Verify that the browser version is 120 or newer. After updating, monitor for any anomalous activity in browser logs.
