DescriptionCVE.org

Inappropriate implementation in Autofill in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to leak cross-origin data via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Cross-origin data leakage in Google Chrome's Autofill subsystem (all versions prior to 151.0.7922.72) can be triggered remotely by luring a victim to a crafted HTML page, exposing data that should be isolated under the Same-Origin Policy. The flaw is classified as CWE-346 (Origin Validation Error), meaning Chrome's Autofill implementation fails to properly enforce cross-origin boundaries when processing form data. No public exploit exists and the EPSS score of 0.22% (12th percentile) reflects low near-term exploitation likelihood; the issue is patched in the stable channel release 151.0.7922.72.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in Chrome's Autofill feature - the browser subsystem responsible for automatically populating form fields with saved user data such as addresses and payment details. CWE-346 (Origin Validation Error) identifies the root cause: Autofill fails to properly validate the requesting origin before making data available to a page, allowing a cross-origin crafted HTML document to read data that the Same-Origin Policy should isolate. The affected scope per CPE (cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) covers all Chrome releases across platforms prior to 151.0.7922.72, as confirmed by EUVD-2026-50629.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome to version 151.0.7922.72 or later, the vendor-released patch addressing this vulnerability per the stable channel advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. Chrome's built-in auto-update mechanism should apply this fix automatically for most desktop users; enterprise administrators should verify fleet-wide deployment via Chrome Browser Cloud Management or Group Policy and confirm the installed version through chrome://settings/help. As a compensating control prior to patching, disabling Autofill in Chrome settings (chrome://settings/autofill → turn off 'Save and fill addresses' and 'Save and fill payment methods') eliminates the vulnerable code path at the cost of losing auto-population convenience. Web filtering or proxy controls that block navigation to untrusted or unsolicited HTML pages reduce exposure to the crafted-page delivery vector without requiring configuration changes to Chrome itself.
