Google mentions in its Chrome release post that it is aware that an exploit for CVE-2022-1096 exists in the wild.
The vulnerability is a type confusion vulnerability in the V8 JavaScript engine. Explained simple, a type confusion allows attackers to access data in an unauthorized way, thereby executing malicious code. In detail, when the program accesses the resource using an incompatible type, this could trigger logical errors because the resource does not have expected properties. In languages without memory safety, such as C and C++, type confusion can lead to out-of-bounds memory access.
