CVE-2017-5062
A use after free in Chrome Apps in Google Chrome prior to 58.0.3029.81 for Mac, Windows, and Linux, and 58.0.3029.83 for Android, allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform out of bounds memory access via a crafted Chrome extension.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.18%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
