| Exploitation Conditions | The victim must actively visit a crafted HTML page in Google Chrome (UI:R - user interaction required), which prevents automated or worm-like exploitation. The attacker requires no authentication (PR:N) and no elevated privileges on the target system. The vulnerability is present in default Chrome installations with no special configuration required on the victim's side - any Chrome user below version 149.0.7827.53 browsing to a malicious page is potentially affected. Exploitation is limited to UI-level spoofing (no code execution, no data theft per CVSS C:N/A:N), which constrains the practical harm. The unchanged scope (S:U) means the exploit cannot pivot to the OS or other browser origins beyond the History manipulation itself. |
| Impact | The combined signal from all available intelligence sources places this vulnerability firmly in the low real-world priority tier. CVSS 4.3 is a Medium base score, but Chromium's own severity rating is 'Low,' which is consistent with the CVSS breakdown: no confidentiality impact, only low integrity impact, and no availability impact. EPSS at 0.03% (11th percentile) further confirms minimal exploitation probability in practice. There is no CISA KEV listing and no public exploit code identified. The UI:R requirement is a meaningful limiting factor - mass automated exploitation is not feasible since each victim must manually interact with a malicious page. One notable discrepancy: the CVE tag includes 'Information Disclosure,' but the CVSS vector explicitly shows C:N (no confidentiality impact); this tag likely reflects metadata classification noise and should not influence triage. The SSVC signal on automatable exploitation is low given the required user interaction. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker crafts a malicious HTML page that exploits Chrome's History policy enforcement gap, then distributes a link via phishing email or a compromised advertisement network. When a user on a vulnerable Chrome version visits the page, the attacker manipulates the browser's displayed History or UI chrome elements (such as the address bar state or back/forward navigation context) to impersonate a trusted site, enabling a follow-on phishing step where the victim enters credentials or approves an action believing they are on a legitimate domain. No public proof-of-concept code exists at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jun 05, 2026
UI spoofing via Chrome's History component (versions prior to 149.0.7827.53) lets an unauthenticated remote attacker deceive users through a crafted HTML page, exploiting insufficient policy enforcement in History navigation handling. The attacker can manipulate browser UI elements perceived by the victim, creating phishing-class deception without any confidentiality or availability impact - consistent with Chromium's own 'Low' severity rating. No public exploit code exists and EPSS sits at 0.03% (11th percentile), indicating very low probability of in-the-wild exploitation at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Update Google Chrome to version 149.0.7827.53 or later, which contains the vendor-released patch as confirmed by the June 2026 Stable Channel update advisory at http://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/06/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html. Chrome's auto-update mechanism should apply this fix automatically on most deployments; administrators managing enterprise fleets should verify rollout via Chrome Browser Cloud Management or policy tooling. No workaround is documented for this issue. Given the low CVSS impact (integrity-only, no code execution) and the absence of active exploitation, patching can follow standard patch cycle cadence rather than emergency deployment. Restricting users from visiting untrusted or unvetted web content through proxy filtering or Safe Browsing policies provides an additional compensating control with minimal operational side effects.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The root cause is CWE-346 (Origin Validation Error), meaning Chrome's History subsystem fails to correctly enforce origin or policy boundaries when processing attacker-controlled HTML. This allows a malicious page to influence the browser's History state or visible UI in ways that should be blocked by same-origin or navigation policy controls. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N) confirms the attack is fully network-accessible, requires no authentication, has low attack complexity, but does require user interaction - specifically, the victim must visit the crafted page. The scope is unchanged (S:U), meaning the vulnerability is contained within the browser's rendering context and does not break out to the underlying OS. The EUVD-identified affected CPE range is Chrome versions below 149.0.7827.53.
