Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The victim must be running Google Chrome on iOS (not Safari, not Chrome on Android or desktop) with a version prior to 151.0.7922.72. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 6.5 Medium score (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N) captures a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw requiring no authentication but mandating active user interaction (visiting a crafted page), with impact confined to integrity. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker hosts a crafted HTML page on an attacker-controlled domain and socially engineers a Chrome for iOS user into visiting it via phishing, malicious advertisement, or a redirect chain. Upon page load, the crafted content exploits the insufficient policy enforcement to bypass the browser's navigation restrictions, potentially redirecting the user to a restricted resource, circumventing enterprise URL filters, or bypassing authentication-gated navigation flows. …
Remediation Upgrade Google Chrome on iOS to version 151.0.7922.72 or later, which is confirmed as the vendor-patched release per the Chrome Releases advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
