Google Chromium Mojo Sandbox Escape Vulnerability
CVE-2025-2783 is a security vulnerability in Google Chromium Mojo, added to CISA KEV on March 27, 2025. Patch order: third of four.
What is CVE-2025-2783?
Google Chromium Mojo on Windows contains a sandbox escape vulnerability caused by a logic error, which results from an incorrect handle being provided in unspecified circumstances. This vulnerability could affect multiple web browsers that utilize Chromium, including, but not limited to, Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Opera.
VulnCheck tracked exploitation 2 days before CISA's KEV listing. VulnCheck's broader catalog of in-the-wild exploitation evidence picked this up before it landed on CISA's formal list. Per-CVE fact about this entry; not a population claim about lead time in general.
Who is affected by CVE-2025-2783?
Affects anyone using Chrome or Chromium as their browser. The browser is where staff log into cloud apps, banking, and client portals — exploitation can mean session theft or credential exposure for every site you're signed into.
What should I do about CVE-2025-2783?
Apply mitigations per vendor instructions, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance for cloud services, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
The action above is CISA's wording. The directive it names, BOD 22-01, was revoked by BOD 26-04 on June 10, 2026; CISA's catalog still carries the older text for this entry.
If you don't have someone in-house to verify the patch deployed across every endpoint — or you're not sure whether you're affected — that's exactly the kind of triage we do. Request a free review.
Insurance readiness
Your insurer will ask if this is patched.
Unpatched entries on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list are exactly what cyber-insurance carrier questionnaires probe for, and knowing which controls they check is how you keep a renewal from stalling.

CVSS base score: 8.3 — HIGH
CISA due date
CISA's listed due date: April 17, 2025.
Federal civilian agencies work under CISA's Binding Operational Directive 26-04, which replaced BOD 22-01 on June 10, 2026. It sets the deadline for each affected system by:
- How exposed that system is to the internet
- Whether the attack can be automated
- How much control it gives an attacker
Its table gives catalogued vulnerabilities 3 or 14 days.
None of this binds a private business, but treat the date as a strong recommendation, especially if you handle regulated data (HIPAA, GLBA, ABA model rules).
EPSS
EPSS score: 9.2% — higher than 95% of all scored CVEs.
EPSS estimates the probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days. Every entry on this site is already confirmed exploited, so read it as relative urgency among the things you still have open, not as permission to wait.
