Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Victim must (1) have Adobe Acrobat PDF Extension for Chrome version 26.5.2.2 or earlier installed and enabled in Chromium-based browser, and (2) actively visit a maliciously crafted URL or interact with a compromised web page (UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals are consistent but moderate. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker sends a phishing link or compromises a frequently visited site; when a victim running the vulnerable extension visits the page, attacker-controlled script triggers the UXSS condition in the extension's privileged context. The script then reads session-scoped data (cookies, tokens, or DOM content) from other origins the user is logged into - for example a webmail or SaaS tab - and exfiltrates it. … |
| Remediation | Patch available per vendor advisory: update the Adobe Acrobat PDF Extension for Chrome to a version newer than 26.5.2.2 via the Chrome Web Store (https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/adobe-acrobat-pdf-edit-co/efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj); confirm auto-updates are enabled in chrome://extensions so endpoints pick up the fix without user action. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
