Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the victim to be running Google Chrome on any platform at a version prior to 152.0.7977.65, and to be induced via social engineering to navigate to an attacker-controlled crafted HTML page - user interaction (UI:R) is the mandatory and primary limiting prerequisite. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
