Absolute path traversal in Microsoft Edge for Android allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information locally.
AnalysisAI
Absolute path traversal in Microsoft Edge for Android (Chromium-based) prior to version 150.0.4078.48 enables local, unauthenticated information disclosure by allowing crafted paths to escape the application's intended directory scope. The CVSS vector (AV:L/C:H/I:N/A:N) confirms the impact is limited to confidentiality loss on the local device, with no integrity or availability consequences. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Technical ContextAI
CWE-36 (Absolute Path Traversal) describes a failure to sanitize user-supplied file paths before resolving them, allowing an attacker to specify absolute filesystem paths that escape the intended directory boundary. In the context of Microsoft Edge for Android (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:microsoft:microsoft_edge_(chromium-based):*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), this means a crafted input could cause the browser to resolve and expose files outside its sandboxed application storage. The Chromium-based architecture of Edge on Android means the vulnerability resides in Microsoft's Android-specific implementation layer rather than the shared Chromium rendering engine. Affected versions span from 1.0.0.0 up to but not including 150.0.4078.48.
RemediationAI
The primary fix is to update Microsoft Edge for Android to version 150.0.4078.48 or later via the Google Play Store or your organization's mobile device management (MDM) distribution channel. The Microsoft MSRC advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-58300 confirms patch availability. As a compensating control where immediate patching is not possible, organizations managing Android devices through MDM (e.g., Microsoft Intune) should consider restricting Edge's access to sensitive filesystem paths via app configuration policies, or temporarily enforcing an alternative approved browser. Restricting physical device access and enforcing full-disk encryption limits the blast radius of local information disclosure, though these do not remediate the underlying flaw. Note that disabling Edge entirely may disrupt workflows dependent on Edge-specific enterprise features such as SSO integration with Azure AD.
