The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

Requires the victim to be running Google Chrome on Android at a version prior to 155.0.8059.39, and to be socially engineered into opening an attacker-crafted HTML page (UI:R) - the leak cannot be triggered without this user interaction. No authentication or elevated privileges are needed (PR:N) and no non-default configuration is indicated, so default Android Chrome installs are affected. The user-interaction/social-engineering requirement and the vendor's 'Low' severity rating are the key limiting factors; disclosure is confined to sensitive information handled by the Passwords component rather than full device or account compromise.

Impact

Signals conflict sharply. The supplied CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H = 8.8) rates this as High with full confidentiality, integrity AND availability impact, yet the vulnerability is a CWE-200 information leak in Chrome's Passwords component that Google's own Chromium security team rated 'Low'. An information-disclosure flaw should not carry I:H/A:H - the supplied vector appears inflated and inconsistent with both the description and the vendor's own severity, so the 8.8 should NOT be treated as the operative priority. There is no CISA KEV listing and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and no EPSS score was provided, so there is no evidence of active or imminent exploitation. Exploitation also requires user interaction (UI:R) driven by social engineering, which further reduces real-world risk. Net assessment: despite the headline 8.8, this is a low-to-moderate real-world priority - a vendor-rated Low info leak with a patch already available; apply the Chrome update in normal patch cycles rather than as an emergency.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker socially engineers an Android Chrome user into visiting a crafted HTML page; when the victim opens it in a vulnerable Chrome build, the page triggers the Passwords-component information leak and discloses sensitive data to the attacker. No authentication is required (PR:N) but the attack cannot succeed without the victim's interaction (UI:R). No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 06, 2026

Information disclosure in Google Chrome for Android lets a remote attacker who successfully socially engineers a victim into opening a crafted HTML page expose sensitive data handled by the browser's Passwords component; builds prior to 155.0.8059.39 are affected, and no authentication or non-default configuration is required. The vendor classifies the issue as Low severity (CWE-200) and no public exploit code was identified at time of analysis. Note that the supplied CVSS base score of 8.8 (C:H/I:H/A:H) is inconsistent with the information-disclosure description and the vendor's Low rating; our independent assessment scores it AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N, i.e. a confidentiality leak that strictly depends on user interaction.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: 155.0.8059.39 - Google has shipped a fix in the Chrome stable channel, so the primary action is to update Chrome on Android to 155.0.8059.39 or later via Google Play (or the vendor's managed deployment path), and to confirm the installed version in Chrome's Settings > About Chrome screen; refer to the release note at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/10/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_086471744.html and the tracking issue at https://issues.chromium.org/issues/553335319. Until managed fleets are fully updated, compensating controls should target the social-engineering trigger and the Passwords component itself: restrict or disable saved-password storage and autofill in Chrome on Android (Android Settings > Google > Autofill/Password Manager, or chrome://settings/passwords where reachable), and require employees to use a separate, vetted password manager instead - the trade-off is reduced convenience and extra helpdesk load, and users who keep credentials in a third-party manager must ensure it is not exposed through Chrome's autofill integration. Blocking or warning on untrusted links and enforcing safe-browsing/URL-blocklist policies at the network or MDM layer reduces the likelihood of the UI:R prerequisite being satisfied, at the cost of possible false positives on legitimate sites. Because exploitation requires the victim to open a crafted page, awareness messaging about unsolicited links is a reasonable stopgap, but it is not a substitute for patching. No vendor workaround that preserves the Passwords functionality completely was identified in the source data.

Technical ContextAI · show details

CVE-2026-106256 is rooted in CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor) and lives in the Passwords component of Chrome on Android - the browser's credential store/autofill subsystem that holds saved logins. The attack path is client-side and non-memory-corruption: a crafted HTML page, once rendered after the victim is lured to it (CVSS UI:R), causes the browser to disclose information from that password-handling component instead of keeping it isolated per-origin. There is no indication of code execution, memory corruption, privilege escalation, or state modification, which is why the integrity and availability metrics of the supplied 8.8 score are not supportable; the observed impact is confidentiality-only and limited (C:L) per our independent assessment. The CPE record cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* is a broad wildcard covering the Chrome product line, while the description and ENISA EUVD entry (EUVD-2026-93637) narrow the exposure to Chrome on Android before the fixed build. Chromium's own security severity rating is Low, and the referenced tracker is https://issues.chromium.org/issues/553335319.

Information leak in Passwords in Google Chrome on on Android prior to 155.0.8059.39 allowed a remote attacker leveraging social engineering to obtain sensitive information via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Low)

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Google Chrome for Android builds below 155.0.8059.39 carry an information-disclosure weakness in the browser's password component that could expose stored credentials if an employee is socially engineered into opening a crafted web page on a mobile device. The exposure requires no authentication on the attacker's side and no special configuration, but it does depend on a user clicking into attacker-controlled content, so risk is concentrated on the human element rather than automated mass compromise, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Leadership should care because affected devices are typically personal or BYOD phones holding both corporate credentials and the user's personal passwords, and a vendor patch is already available, making this a patch-compliance and user-awareness issue rather than a zero-day response.
