The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the victim to be running Google Chrome before version 155.0.8059.79 and to be actively lured, via social engineering, into loading an attacker-crafted HTML page (UI:R) - the leak does not occur against a passive or idle browser. No authentication, special privileges, or non-default configuration is required (PR:N), and the attack is network-delivered via web content (AV:N) at low complexity (AC:L). The principal limiting factor is the mandatory user interaction and successful social-engineering lure; impact is restricted to disclosure of sensitive information from the Passwords feature (C:H) with no integrity or availability effect.

Impact

This is a moderate-priority issue that does not rise to emergency status. The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 (vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) reflects a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw whose impact is confined to high confidentiality loss with no integrity or availability effect - consistent with an information leak (CWE-200) in Chrome's Passwords component. The key limiting signal is UI:R combined with the description's explicit reliance on social engineering: exploitation is not automatic and requires luring a victim to attacker-controlled content. Corroborating this lower real-world urgency, the EPSS probability is only 0.17% (6th percentile), indicating low predicted exploitation activity. The CVE is NOT on CISA KEV and no public exploit code is referenced, so there is no evidence of active or opportunistic exploitation - no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Signals are internally consistent (network vector with required user interaction matches a crafted-HTML-page social-engineering leak), so there is no CVSS-versus-description conflict to flag. No SSVC decision record was provided in the input, so automatable/technical-impact determinations cannot be sourced. Net: patch in the normal browser-update cycle; it is a genuine confidentiality flaw but reads as a high-CVSS-component rating tempered by low EPSS, no KEV, and a mandatory user-interaction barrier rather than a widespread-exploitation emergency.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious HTML page and uses social engineering (phishing link, malicious ad, or deceptive site) to convince a Chrome user to visit it, at which point the page abuses the Passwords component to leak sensitive stored information to the attacker. No authentication is required but the victim must actively interact by opening the attacker's content. No public proof-of-concept or exploit code is identified in the provided data.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 14, 2026

Information disclosure in Google Chrome's password manager allows unauthenticated remote attackers to leak sensitive credentials from users who are socially engineered into loading a crafted HTML page. Affected are Chrome versions prior to 155.0.8059.79; the issue is confirmed via vendor advisory with a patch available. Exploitation requires user interaction and has not been observed in active campaigns, with an EPSS score of only 0.17% (6th percentile), indicating a moderate-priority risk that does not rise to emergency status.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to Google Chrome version 155.0.8059.79 or later, which contains the vendor-released patch for this information leak. The update is available through Chrome's built-in updater, or by downloading the latest version from the official Chrome website; enterprise administrators can push the update via standard software management tools. Until patching is complete, users should exercise caution with unsolicited links and avoid navigating to untrusted HTML pages, as exploitation requires social engineering. No specific configuration workaround is documented; disabling the password manager entirely (via chrome://settings/passwords or enterprise policy PasswordManagerEnabled=false) would prevent the leak but at the cost of losing password storage and autofill functionality. Given the moderate CVSS score and low EPSS (0.17%), the patch should be applied as part of routine maintenance, not as an emergency measure. Refer to the Chrome release blog advisory for details: https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/10/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_01668083673.html.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This vulnerability resides in Google Chrome's built-in password manager, which stores and autofills credentials. CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor) indicates that the feature fails to properly isolate or protect password data when processing certain web content. An attacker can craft an HTML page that, when loaded by a victim, triggers a leak of stored passwords or other sensitive information from the Passwords component. The attack requires the victim to be lured into visiting the page (UI:R) and works over the network without authentication (AV:N/PR:N). The Chromium security severity is rated High, though the CVSS 3.1 vector (6.5) reflects the user-interaction requirement and the confidentiality-only impact. The underlying weakness is addressed in Chrome 155.0.8059.79, per the Chromium issue tracker (issue 561039723). No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
