MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Defense Evasion The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires that the victim is using Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) on an Android device and must perform an active interaction - such as clicking a malicious link or navigating to an attacker-controlled page (UI:R confirmed by CVSS vector). The attacker requires no authentication and no elevated privileges (PR:N), and the attack can be initiated over a standard network connection (AV:N). The specific security feature being bypassed is not named in available data, which limits precise condition scoping; it is inferred from CWE-284 and CVSS C:H that the bypass allows access to data that should be restricted by a browser-enforced security boundary. Exploitation is limited to the Android platform - desktop or iOS Edge versions are not implicated by the CPE or description. The UI:R requirement prevents fully automated, zero-interaction mass exploitation. |
| Impact | The CVSS base score of 6.5 (Medium) is supported by a vector of AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, indicating a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated attack that requires user interaction and yields high confidentiality exposure. The temporal modifiers E:U (exploit code unconfirmed or unavailable), RL:O (official remediation available), and RC:C (vulnerability confirmed by vendor) collectively reduce real-world urgency: no weaponized exploit is known, and a patch is in hand. EPSS data was not provided, and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, corroborating the low active exploitation signal. The practical risk is moderate: the C:H impact is meaningful for users whose sensitive data could be accessed, but the UI:R requirement limits mass automated exploitation. Organizations with Edge for Android deployed on managed mobile devices should prioritize patching within a normal patch cycle rather than emergency response. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker hosts a malicious web page or crafted content that triggers the access control flaw when visited by a target using Microsoft Edge on Android. When the victim clicks a link or navigates to the attacker-controlled resource (satisfying UI:R), the security feature bypass is triggered and the attacker gains unauthorized access to high-confidentiality data accessible within the browser's security context. No public proof-of-concept exploit code has been identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 03, 2026
Security feature bypass in Microsoft Edge for Android exposes high-confidentiality data to unauthenticated network attackers who can induce user interaction. The vulnerability stems from improper access control (CWE-284) in the Chromium-based mobile browser, allowing an attacker to circumvent a security boundary and access protected information without credentials. No active exploitation is confirmed (CISA KEV absent, temporal metric E:U), and a vendor patch is available via MSRC, making this a patch-priority item rather than an emergency response.
RemediationAI
Apply the vendor-released patch for Microsoft Edge for Android as documented in the MSRC advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-58523. Users on Android should update Edge via the Google Play Store to the latest available version; the exact patched version number is not enumerated in the available data and should be confirmed via the MSRC advisory. As a compensating control pending update, organizations managing mobile devices through an MDM/UEM solution can restrict or block Edge for Android access to sensitive internal resources until patching is confirmed. Disabling the specific security feature involved may reduce attack surface but could also impact usability; this trade-off should be evaluated against the MSRC guidance. No workaround replacing the patch has been identified from available data.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected product is Microsoft Edge for Android in its Chromium-based variant, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:microsoft:microsoft_edge_(chromium-based):*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, indicating all versions of the Chromium-based Edge are in scope. The root cause is CWE-284 (Improper Access Control), a class of flaw where security boundaries or permission checks are insufficiently enforced - in this context, a feature meant to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data or browser security zones fails to correctly validate the legitimacy of a request or context. The 'Google' tag in the metadata suggests the underlying Chromium rendering engine may be implicated, as Edge on Android shares the Blink/V8 stack with Chrome. The network attack vector and confidentiality-only impact (C:H/I:N/A:N) are consistent with a same-origin policy bypass, cross-origin data leakage, or authentication bypass within the browser security model.
