a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to
potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page.

- CVE-2021-21224 (arbitrary code execution)

Type confusion in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 90.0.4430.85 allowed a
remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a
crafted HTML page. Google is aware of reports that exploits for this
issue exist in the wild.

- CVE-2021-21225 (arbitrary code execution)

Out of bounds memory access in V8 in Google Chrome prior to

rendered process. In addition, an attacker can execute arbitrary code
and escape the sandbox through a crafted HTML page.
