Exploitation Conditions

The victim must be running Google Chrome on Android with a version strictly below 151.0.7922.72 (per EUVD affected version range). The attacker must deliver a crafted HTML page to the victim and the victim must actively navigate to it in Chrome - user interaction is required per CVSS UI:R. No authentication, privileged account, or special server-side configuration is required on the attacker's side. Exploitation is explicitly scoped to the Android platform; Chrome on Windows, macOS, or Linux is not identified as affected. The impact is limited to UI spoofing - an attacker cannot directly read files, execute code, or modify persistent data through this vulnerability alone. The primary limiting factor is the necessity of user-initiated navigation to a malicious page, which reduces mass exploitation risk.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 score of 5.4 with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L signals a medium-severity, network-reachable attack requiring user interaction, with limited confidentiality and availability impact. However, several signals collectively lower the real-world priority: the EPSS score of 0.17% at the 7th percentile indicates that historically similar vulnerabilities are rarely exploited in practice; there is no CISA KEV listing; no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis; and Chromium's own team assigned this a 'Low' severity rating internally. The A:L availability metric in the original CVSS vector is atypical for a UI spoofing vulnerability and may reflect conservative vendor scoring rather than a concrete availability degradation. The primary risk is enabling phishing or credential harvesting by deceiving users about the displayed origin - not direct code execution or data exfiltration. This vulnerability is appropriate to address in a standard patch cycle rather than emergency remediation.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker registers a domain and hosts a crafted HTML page designed to trigger the WebView inappropriate implementation, then distributes the link via phishing email, SMS, or social media targeting Android Chrome users. When the victim visits the page on an unpatched device, the browser renders spoofed UI elements - such as a fake browser chrome, false security lock icon, or counterfeit login prompt - that make the malicious origin appear legitimate, potentially leading the user to submit credentials or approve actions under a false sense of trust. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the attack requires the user to actively navigate to the attacker-controlled page.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 30, 2026

UI spoofing in Google Chrome's WebView component on Android (versions prior to 151.0.7922.72) allows a remote attacker to mislead users about the origin or security context of displayed content via a crafted HTML page. Classified by Chromium as Low severity and rooted in CWE-451 (UI Misrepresentation of Critical Information), this flaw could be leveraged to facilitate phishing or social engineering by making malicious content visually indistinguishable from trusted interfaces. No public exploit has been identified and EPSS sits at 0.17% (7th percentile), indicating this is a routine patch-cycle issue rather than an active threat.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome for Android to version 151.0.7922.72 or later via the Google Play Store; this is the vendor-released patch documented in the stable channel advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. Organizations managing Android fleets via MDM should push this update through their standard Chrome update policies. As a compensating control prior to patching, restricting end-user navigation to untrusted or unvetted web pages on managed Android devices reduces the attack surface - though this is impractical in most consumer contexts. Enterprise applications that embed Chrome WebView should also update their bundled WebView dependency if it is pinned below this version. No significant operational side effects from applying the standard Chrome update are expected.

Technical ContextAI · show details

WebView is an Android system component - embedded in Google Chrome and many third-party apps - that renders web content within an application context. CWE-451 (User Interface Misrepresentation of Critical Information) describes failures where the UI presents misleading information about the security state, origin, or nature of rendered content, creating a gap between user perception and actual security context. This category typically covers spoofed address bars, fake permission dialogs, or counterfeit security indicators. The affected CPE (cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) covers all Chrome versions, with EUVD-2026-50664 and the Chrome stable channel advisory narrowing the vulnerable range to Chrome for Android below 151.0.7922.72. The Chromium bug tracker reference (issues.chromium.org/issues/506390325) is likely access-restricted, so the precise HTML trigger mechanism is not publicly disclosed.
