Network UXSS with cross-origin scope change (S:C, C:H/I:H); AC:H because it needs a reflected-XSS foothold plus a login-dialog-dismissal trigger, and UI:R for victim interaction.

DescriptionCVE.org

UC Browser for Android (package com.UCMobile.intl, version 13.7.8.1314) contains a Universal Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of any origin. An attacker hosts a specially crafted URL on a UC-owned domain (via a reflected XSS) that leverages the browser's internal JavaScript bridge to register a deferred callback, navigate the tab to a victim site, and then execute attacker-controlled code on that site when a login dialog is dismissed.

AnalysisAI

Universal Cross-Site Scripting (UXSS) in UC Browser for Android (com.UCMobile.intl 13.7.8.1314) lets remote attackers run arbitrary JavaScript in the security context of any origin, defeating the same-origin policy. By luring a victim to a reflected-XSS page hosted on a UC-owned domain, an attacker abuses the browser's internal JavaScript bridge to register a deferred callback, silently navigate the tab to a target site, and fire attacker code against that origin when a login dialog is dismissed. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the victim to be using UC Browser for Android (com.UCMobile.intl, v13.7.8.1314) and to open an attacker-supplied URL that triggers a reflected XSS on a UC-owned domain (needed to reach the privileged internal JavaScript bridge). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N, base 9.3) reflects a network-reachable, unauthenticated attack with a scope change (cross-origin compromise) and high confidentiality/integrity impact but no availability impact - consistent with a UXSS. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No vendor-released patch version is identified at time of analysis, so treat this as unpatched pending a UCWeb advisory: update UC Browser to the latest Play Store release once the vendor confirms a fix, and verify the installed version is later than 13.7.8.1314. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Issue an immediate security alert to all users and mobile device managers advising discontinuation of UC Browser for Android and recommending immediate switching to alternative browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge. …
