Integer overflow in Chromecast in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process 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.

  - Integer overflow in Chromecast in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker who had     compromised the renderer process to potentially execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox via a crafted     HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2026-79292)

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 152.0.7977.64. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2026_08_stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0256176589 advisory.
