Original Bug Report

reported by vm...@google.com

Potential cross-origin GPU memory leak via DawnEGLImageRepresentation missing internal_usage

Project Fortify, an experimental security project, has identified the following potential security issue. If you’re a feature owner CC-ed on this bug, please do your best to review these reports without the Chrome Security team. Please see https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/security/ai-generated-security-bugs-faq.md for more information.

Overview: DawnEGLImageRepresentation computes its GL access mode using only the usage parameter, ignoring internal_usage. This potential mismatch allows Dawn to perform writes while the backing holds a non-exclusive read-lock. Concurrent readers can then sample uninitialized GPU memory containing cross-origin data.

Affected files:

  • gpu/command_buffer/service/shared_image/dawn_egl_image_representation.cc
  • gpu/command_buffer/service/shared_image/shared_image_representation.cc

Estimated timestamp from git blame: 2026-04-27

Final Conclusion

The vulnerability is highly exploitable, potentially allowing an attacker to disclose uninitialized, cross-origin GPU memory via a timeline race condition. Note: these are suggested/potential steps, our tooling agent doesn’t yet have the ability to run code.

Technical Details

Initial logic and parameters for SharedImage creation and mailbox association are validated. Standard processing applied for EGLImageBacking allocation. Standard processing applied for WebGPU context binding.

Due to the missing internal_usage bitmask in ToSharedImageAccessGLMode, Dawn receives a writable RenderAttachment texture while the backing records GL_SHARED_IMAGE_ACCESS_MODE_READ_CHROMIUM. This mismatch allows a secondary read operation from a parallel GPU context to instantly sample the texture memory without waiting on a write_fence_. The concurrent read bypasses driver-level synchronization and directly captures the uninitialized, pre-clear VRAM residue before Dawn’s lazy-clear write executes on the GPU timeline.

Potential Reproduction Steps

  1. Initial logic and IPC parameters for WebGPU mailbox association are validated.
  2. Standard processing applied for EGLImageBacking read-lock acquisition.
  3. The concurrent read bypasses driver-level synchronization and directly captures the uninitialized VRAM residue before Dawn’s lazy-clear write executes.

Suggested Fix

Update DawnEGLImageRepresentation::BeginAccess to compute the access mode using usage | internal_usage, identical to DawnGLTextureRepresentation::BeginAccess.
