Improper input validation in Core in Google Chrome on on Android prior to 156.0.8078.73 allowed a remote attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Improper input validation in Core in Google Chrome on on Android prior to 156.0.8078.73 allowed a remote     attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium     security severity: High) (CVE-2026-118321)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote macOS host is prior to 156.0.8078.73. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2026_10_stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0562499947 advisory.
