CVE-2025-13224 is a type confusion vulnerability (CWE-843) in the V8 JavaScript engine within Google Chrome versions prior to 142.0.7444.175. The flaw enables a remote attacker to potentially trigger heap corruption by means of a crafted HTML page. Chromium security has rated it as High severity, with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
A remote attacker without privileges can exploit this vulnerability over the network by luring a user into interacting with a malicious site, such as visiting a webpage or processing a crafted HTML document. User interaction is required to trigger the issue, after which the attacker could achieve heap corruption, leading to high-impact compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Google's Chrome Releases blog announces a stable channel update for desktop in version 142.0.7444.175 that addresses this vulnerability. Additional technical details are documented in the Chromium issue tracker at https://issues.chromium.org/issues/450328966.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation (including fuzzing and type-aware analysis) directly finds type-confusion flaws before deployment.
Engineering principles can require use of type-safe languages, static typing, and runtime type checks that structurally avoid allocating one type and accessing another.
Memory-protection controls limit the blast radius when a type-confusion access occurs but do not stop the flaw itself.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices directly prevent type-confusion flaws via safe typing, static analysis, and code review while the control itself addresses many additional weaknesses.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Security testing in development can detect type-confusion vulnerabilities through fuzzing and static analysis.
Secure SDLC mandates type-safe design and review that can catch type-confusion flaws.
Application security requirements can specify strong typing and interface contracts that reduce type confusion.
Secure architecture principles promote type-safe languages and memory-safety mechanisms that mitigate type confusion.
Secure coding standards directly forbid unsafe type casts and require static-analysis checks for type confusion.
