Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an Android user to visit an attacker-controlled HTML page using Google Chrome for Android prior to version 151.0.7922.72. The vulnerability is triggered when the crafted page invokes the FullScreen API, which then incorrectly renders UI elements to spoof browser indicators. User interaction is required per CVSS UI:R - the user must navigate to or be redirected to the malicious page. No authentication, local access, server-side configuration, or non-default browser settings are required to trigger the flaw. Limiting factors: restricted to the Android platform only (not desktop or iOS); impact is confined to UI spoofing with no code execution or data exfiltration capability; user must interact with the malicious page; the low EPSS and Chromium 'Low' severity rating indicate this is not a widely pursued attack surface.

Impact

The CVSS base score of 4.3 (Medium) is composed of AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N - network-reachable, low complexity, no privileges required, but user interaction is mandatory. Impact is limited to low integrity (UI spoofing) with no confidentiality or availability consequence and no scope change. The EPSS of 0.21% at the 11th percentile is very low, indicating minimal real-world exploitation interest from threat actors relative to the broader vulnerability population. Chromium's own security team rated this 'Low,' which is notably conservative compared to the NVD CVSS 4.3 score - the Chromium assessment should be weighted accordingly. No CISA KEV listing and no public exploit code have been identified. Taken together, this is a low real-world priority: it requires active user interaction, produces only a spoofed UI (no code execution, no data exfiltration), is platform-specific to Android, and has extremely low observed exploitation probability. The primary threat scenario is targeted phishing, not mass exploitation.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker sends a phishing link to an Android Chrome user directing them to a malicious page that immediately invokes the FullScreen API upon load. With the browser chrome (URL bar and security indicators) suppressed by fullscreen mode, the page renders a convincing counterfeit browser interface displaying a trusted domain, prompting the user to enter credentials into an attacker-controlled form. No public proof-of-concept code has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 30, 2026

UI spoofing in Google Chrome for Android prior to version 151.0.7922.72 stems from an inappropriate FullScreen API implementation that allows remote attackers to deceive users with a crafted HTML page. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N) confirms this is network-accessible without authentication but requires user interaction with a malicious page. With an EPSS of 0.21% at the 11th percentile, no CISA KEV listing, and Chromium's own 'Low' severity designation, real-world exploitation interest is minimal and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Update Google Chrome on Android to version 151.0.7922.72 or later, which resolves the FullScreen implementation flaw per the Chrome stable channel advisory at http://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/07/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_0887107924.html. Users should verify automatic updates are enabled via the Google Play Store to ensure prompt delivery. No specific vendor-documented workarounds have been identified for unpatched devices; as a compensating control, users can reduce exposure by avoiding untrusted or unsolicited web links on Android and exercising heightened suspicion when any site requests or enters fullscreen mode. Restricting Chrome's fullscreen permissions at the Android OS level (if available via site settings) may limit exposure but could degrade legitimate fullscreen experiences such as video streaming.

Technical ContextAI · show details

CWE-451 (User Interface Misrepresentation of Critical Information) is the root cause class - the FullScreen API in Chrome for Android is incorrectly implemented, permitting crafted pages to render UI elements that misrepresent the browser's security state, address bar, or origin context to users. FullScreen mode is an inherently high-risk surface on mobile because it suppresses the browser chrome (URL bar, lock icon, security indicators), making it a classical vector for phishing and address bar spoofing on Android. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers all Chrome versions, but the description explicitly constrains the vulnerability to the Android platform. The Chromium issue tracker reference (issues.chromium.org/issues/513989304) is the upstream bug report for this specific FullScreen implementation defect.
