CVE-2017-5068

21
FAUCET Score

CVE-2017-5068 describes a race condition vulnerability in Google Chrome's WebRTC component (versions prior to 58.0.3029.96 for Mac, Windows, and Linux) due to incorrect handling of picture IDs, affecting products from Apple, Google, Linux, Microsoft, and Red Hat. This high-severity vulnerability (CVSS 7.5) allows a remote attacker to achieve high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability by enticing a user to visit a crafted HTML page, though it requires high attack complexity. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or inclusion in CISA's KEV catalog, with minimal community discussion and media coverage.
