This is way way wider than just browsers. Anything that can display webp images is vulnerable and that includes things like MS Teams and Twitch.
Further solidifying webp as the worst image format.
The current advisory is in webm (VP8 specifically). The webp one was 2 weeks ago. ...yeah, not a good time for web browsers lately...
(edit: noticed OP actually did link the webp one, I thought it'd be CVE-2023-5217 because that's being linked elsewhere)
