# CVE-2025-5419: Google Chromium V8 Out-of-Bounds Read and Write Vulnerability

**Signal:** Exploited: patch now if you run it. CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild. (Computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS; not an editorial verdict.)

## Should you act?

- Yes, if you run Google Chromium V8. CISA added this CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2025-06-05, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild. US federal agencies must remediate by 2025-06-26 ; treat that as the outer limit, not the target.
- EPSS 7.8% , percentile 95: FIRST’s model estimates a 7.8% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 95% of all scored CVEs (elevated). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Needs a user to click or open something. Phishing makes that realistic, but it is not wormable.

## What it is

Out of bounds read and write in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 137.0.7151.68 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

## Affected products (CVE record)

- Google Chrome: 137.0.7151.68 < 137.0.7151.68

## Severity

- CISA-ADP CVSS 3.1: 8.8 `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H`

## Exploitation

- CISA KEV: added 2025-06-05; federal due date 2025-06-26. Known ransomware use: Unknown.
- CISA required action: Apply mitigations per vendor instructions, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance for cloud services, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
- CISA SSVC assessment: exploitation active , automatable no , technical impact total .
- FIRST EPSS (model of 2026-10-21): 7.82% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 95.
