DescriptionCVE.org

Insufficient policy enforcement in Passwords in Google Chrome on Android prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to bypass discretionary access control via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

AnalysisAI

Insufficient policy enforcement in the Passwords component of Google Chrome on Android prior to version 151.0.7922.72 allows a remote attacker to bypass discretionary access control by luring a user to a crafted HTML page. The integrity impact is rated High (CVSS I:H), indicating an attacker can manipulate or circumvent password-related access controls without needing any prior privileges. No public exploit code has been identified and EPSS sits at 0.18% (8th percentile), suggesting exploitation remains theoretical at time of analysis, though the low attack complexity and no-privilege requirement make it attractive if a reliable technique is developed.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-284 (Improper Access Control), specifically a failure of policy enforcement within Chrome's Passwords subsystem on the Android platform. The Passwords component manages credential storage, autofill decisions, and access gating for saved credentials; insufficient enforcement of discretionary access control policies in this layer can allow a crafted page to override or circumvent the permission model Chrome enforces around credential access. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* scoped to Android, covering all Chrome versions prior to 151.0.7922.72. The vulnerability is Android-specific and does not appear to affect desktop Chrome builds based on the advisory title referencing a 'stable channel update for desktop' that coincidentally patches this Android-affecting issue.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome on Android to version 151.0.7922.72 or later, which is confirmed as the vendor-released patch per the Chrome Stable Channel Update advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. On managed Android fleets, administrators should enforce Chrome version policy via MDM (e.g., Google Workspace endpoint management or Microsoft Intune) to push the update. As a compensating control where immediate patching is not possible, disabling Chrome's built-in password manager and redirecting users to a standalone password manager app removes the vulnerable component from the attack surface, though this disrupts autofill workflows. Restricting access to untrusted web content via URL filtering or Safe Browsing enforcement reduces exposure to crafted HTML pages required to trigger the vulnerability.
