Summary

(Chromium security severity: Critical) ### References - https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-4863 - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-4863 - https://www.techtarget.com/searchsecurity/news/366551978/Browser-companies-patch-critical-zero-day-vulnerability --- **Updated** There is another related security vulnerability. > There's another related CVE ([CVE-2023-5217](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-5217)) that is fixed in Chromium 117.0.5938.132. This one is triggered by WebCodecs API encoder usage, so a workaround for older versions is to disable the WebCodecs API (`--disable-blink-features=WebCodecs`).
