Insufficient validation of untrusted input in FedCM in Google Chrome prior to 148.0.7778.96 allowed a remote attacker to leak cross-origin data via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Low)
AnalysisAI
Cross-origin data leakage in Google Chrome's FedCM (Federated Credential Management) component prior to version 148.0.7778.96 allows remote attackers to bypass same-origin isolation and read data from cross-origin contexts. Exploitation requires a victim to visit a crafted HTML page, constraining mass automation. EPSS is 0.02% (7th percentile), SSVC records no active exploitation, and CISA KEV has not listed this vulnerability - signals that consistently place this at lower real-world priority despite its network accessibility.
Technical ContextAI
FedCM (Federated Credential Management) is a browser-native API introduced in Chrome to support privacy-preserving identity federation without relying on third-party cookies or cross-site tracking. The root cause is CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation): the FedCM subsystem fails to adequately validate or sanitize untrusted input derived from attacker-controlled HTML, allowing the same-origin policy enforcement to be bypassed within the FedCM flow. CPE cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* indicates all Chrome releases prior to 148.0.7778.96 across all platforms and operating systems are within scope. The cross-origin data leak class is consistent with scenarios where a browser API incorrectly exposes response data or metadata from a cross-origin identity provider interaction to the initiating (attacker-controlled) origin.
RemediationAI
Update Google Chrome to version 148.0.7778.96 or later, as confirmed by the vendor stable channel advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/05/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html. Chrome's auto-update mechanism will apply this fix on supported platforms; ensure auto-update is enabled and restart the browser to complete the update. For Red Hat and SUSE environments running packaged Chromium, monitor respective distribution security advisories for chromium package updates. As a compensating control prior to patching in managed enterprise environments, administrators may restrict navigation to untrusted external sites via policy or web filtering, which reduces exposure to the crafted-page delivery vector - however, this trade-off limits user browsing capability and does not address the underlying flaw.
