Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation has two mandatory prerequisites confirmed by the CVE description: (1) the attacker must have already compromised the Chrome renderer process on the target device - this is an explicit, non-negotiable precondition making this a chained second-stage vulnerability; and (2) the victim must interact by visiting a crafted HTML page (user interaction required, consistent with CVSS UI:R). The vulnerability is scoped exclusively to Google Chrome's Mobile code path on Android; Chrome on Windows, macOS, Linux, or iOS is not identified as affected. Factors that limit exploitation: the renderer compromise prerequisite is itself a high-severity attack requiring a separate exploit; user interaction is required; impact is limited to URL bar spoofing with no confidentiality or availability consequences. The CVSS PR:N reflects that no authentication to the target system is required, but the renderer compromise condition is functionally a high-complexity barrier.

Impact

The official CVSS base score of 4.3 with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N reflects a network-reachable, low-complexity spoofing flaw, but the AC:L metric appears to underweight a critical attack prerequisite stated explicitly in the CVE description: the attacker must have already compromised the renderer process. This is a high-severity prerequisite in its own right and would justify AC:H under independent assessment. The EPSS score of 0.21% (11th percentile) confirms very low automated exploitation probability. There is no CISA KEV listing and no reported POC, so no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Real-world risk is almost entirely conditional on a chained renderer exploit - without that prerequisite satisfied, this vulnerability is unexploitable. Organizations with Chrome for Android in their environment should prioritize updating primarily because the full release (151.0.7922.72) likely addresses co-disclosed higher-severity renderer vulnerabilities that would make this spoofing flaw dangerous.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker first exploits a separate, higher-severity renderer vulnerability in Chrome on Android to gain control of the renderer process on a victim device. From within the compromised renderer, the attacker delivers a crafted HTML page that abuses the Omnibox input validation flaw to display a trusted-looking URL - such as a corporate SSO portal or banking login - while serving attacker-controlled content. The victim, trusting the spoofed address bar, enters credentials or approves a sensitive action that is then exfiltrated.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 31, 2026

Omnibox (URL bar) spoofing in Google Chrome for Android prior to 151.0.7922.72 enables a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to display arbitrary URL content in the address bar via a crafted HTML page. This is explicitly a second-stage chained vulnerability - renderer compromise is a mandatory prerequisite, meaning the flaw functions as an escalation primitive rather than a standalone attack. No public exploit has been identified and the EPSS score of 0.21% (11th percentile) reflects very low opportunistic exploitation probability, though the phishing and credential-theft potential when chained with a renderer exploit is meaningful.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome for Android to version 151.0.7922.72 or later, available via the Google Play Store automatic update mechanism or through the stable channel release documented at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. Because this spoofing flaw is only exploitable after a renderer process compromise, organizations should treat the full Chrome update as a priority primarily to address any co-disclosed renderer-level vulnerabilities in the same release cycle, which represent the actual attack entry point. No workaround eliminates the Omnibox spoofing risk without upgrading; however, user awareness training to validate URLs through secondary means - such as certificate detail inspection or pre-bookmarked trusted sites - can reduce phishing success if spoofing is triggered by a chained exploit. Patch application carries no known functional side effects.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation) within the Mobile-specific code path of Google Chrome on Android. The Omnibox is Chrome's unified address and search bar and is the primary trust signal users rely upon to verify site identity and detect phishing. Insufficient validation of untrusted input from a compromised renderer allows crafted HTML content to manipulate what the Omnibox displays, decoupling the visible URL from the actual navigated origin. The CPE (cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) covers all Chrome versions generically; EUVD-2026-50743 narrows the affected range to Chrome below 151.0.7922.72 specifically on Android. The Android-only scope implies the flaw resides in platform-specific Mobile rendering or input-handling logic that diverges from the desktop Chromium codebase.
