DescriptionCVE.org

Inappropriate implementation in Chrome for iOS in Google Chrome on iOS prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to bypass navigation restrictions via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Low)

AnalysisAI

Navigation restriction bypass in Google Chrome for iOS (prior to 151.0.7922.72) enables a remote attacker to redirect users to unintended URLs via a crafted HTML page, exploiting a CWE-601 open redirect condition. The Chromium team rated this Low severity, consistent with the CVSS 4.3 score and the limited integrity-only impact (no confidentiality or availability consequences). No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.18% (8th percentile) reflects minimal exploitation interest from the threat actor community.

Technical ContextAI

The root cause is CWE-601 (URL Redirection to Untrusted Site / Open Redirect), classified by Chromium as 'Inappropriate Implementation' in Chrome's iOS navigation layer. Unlike desktop Chrome, Chrome for iOS is built on Apple's WebKit rendering engine due to App Store policy restrictions, meaning its navigation handling differs significantly from Blink-based platforms. This architectural constraint may explain why a navigation restriction bypass exists on iOS but not on other Chrome platforms. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers Google Chrome broadly, but the vulnerability description explicitly scopes impact to the iOS platform only. A crafted HTML page can exploit the flawed navigation implementation to redirect the browser to an attacker-controlled destination, bypassing expected URL restriction controls.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome for iOS to version 151.0.7922.72 or later via the Apple App Store, which contains the vendor-released patch per the Chrome Releases advisory at http://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. Organizations managing iOS fleets should enforce this update through MDM policies (e.g., Jamf, Microsoft Intune) using App Store enforcement controls to ensure rapid rollout. As a compensating control prior to patching, end-user security awareness guidance to avoid clicking unsolicited links on iOS Chrome is advisable, though this is a behavioral rather than technical control and carries no enforcement guarantee. There are no known workarounds that disable the underlying navigation feature without removing browser functionality.
