Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2023-4762

This V8 type confusion was patched in 2023 but earned its KEV entry in February 2024 after evidence emerged it had been exploited as a zero day, reportedly in spyware campaigns, before the fix. A crafted page yields code execution in any Chromium-based browser, including Chrome and Edge. The 38 percent EPSS is high for a browser bug, reflecting how widely the technique circulated once known.

Do this: Ensure browsers across the fleet are far past 2023 builds, and treat any device with a frozen browser version as your priority exposure.
