Summary

CVE-2026-76043 is a high-severity Incorrect Calculation (CWE-682) vulnerability in Google Chrome. Its CVSS base score is 8.8 (High).

Operationally, ranked at the 34th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-15 (Development Process, Standards, and Tools) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation directly exercises calculations and can discover incorrect or unintended results used in security decisions.

Requiring documented development processes and standards can enforce coding rules and tool usage that reduce introduction of calculation errors.

Engineering principles applied during design and implementation can require verified algorithms and safe arithmetic that structurally avoid incorrect calculation results.

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.

blocks

Secure development lifecycle mandates verification steps that catch incorrect calculations before they reach production.

blocks

A.8.26 requires that security requirements (including resilience against attacks such as buffer overflows or SQL injection) be identified during development or acquisition; it does not itself enforce correct calculations or stop an arithmetic error from being introduced or exploited.

removes

A.8.27 mandates establishing and applying secure engineering principles (including secure-by-design, least privilege, and design reviews) but does not itself remove or rewrite an incorrect calculation already present in first-party code; that is a code defect class reached only by testing or remediation controls per the locus rule.

prevents

Secure coding standards directly prohibit unsafe arithmetic and require defensive checks against incorrect results.

finds

Security testing in development and acceptance can detect calculation flaws before deployment.

Hardening callouts derived

DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.

  • No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-682, a pillar-level weakness, and none of its children carries one either.
