Microsoft Edge Addresses Chromium CVE‑2026‑110167 Use‑After‑Free Vulnerability

A use‑after‑free flaw (CVE‑2026‑110167) was found in Chromium. Microsoft Edge (Chromium‑based) has applied the fix. Defenders should verify Edge is updated to the latest release and monitor for anomalous activity.

What happened

The Chromium engine contains a use‑after‑free bug (CVE‑2026‑110167) that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code when rendering malicious web content.

Impact

Any system running a Chromium‑based browser that has not applied the latest patch is vulnerable. Microsoft Edge users are protected once the browser is updated to the current release.

What to do

  • Confirm that Microsoft Edge is at the latest version (currently 125.0.6422.60 or newer).
  • Force a patch deployment across all endpoints that use Edge.
  • Enable automatic updates for all Chromium‑based browsers.
  • Monitor browser logs for unusual memory access patterns or crashes that may indicate exploitation attempts.
  • Apply the same update to any other Chromium‑based applications (e.g., Electron, VS Code) that embed the engine.
