EchelonGraph scoreLOW confidence
Google's Chromium security team rated this High in the advisory text — the exact wording is "(Chromium security severity: High)". Chromium's CNA does not publish a CVSS vector, and NVD has not yet analysed this record, so there is no CVSS v3.1, v4.0 or v2.0 base score for it from any source. EchelonGraph publishes 8.8 (HIGH), derived from the VENDOR'S OWN SEVERITY BAND — not from a CVSS vector. That number is calibrated, not assumed: across 1101 Chromium CVEs that NVD has since scored, a Chromium "High" carried a median CVSS v3 base of 8.8. This score is provisional and will be superseded the moment any source publishes a real CVSS base. Confidence: LOW.
