DescriptionCVE.org

Improper input validation in Editing in Google Chrome prior to 152.0.7977.65 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process and leveraged social engineering to bypass web origin policy via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Origin policy bypass in Google Chrome's Editing component (prior to 152.0.7977.65) requires an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to additionally leverage social engineering against the user via a crafted HTML page. Successful exploitation leaks limited cross-origin data by circumventing the same-origin policy through improper input validation in the editing subsystem. …
