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

Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the victim to be running Google Chrome on Android at a version below 155.0.8059.39 AND to perform the attacker-desired interaction described as 'social engineering' (UI:R) - e.g. visiting or interacting with an attacker-controlled page that delivers crafted network traffic to the Omnibox code path. There is no authentication requirement (PR:N), but the mandatory user-interaction step is the primary limiting factor: the attack cannot succeed fully silently and depends on successful user lure. Scope is unchanged (S:U) and impact is confined to confidentiality (information disclosure), with no integrity or availability effect. The flaw is Android-specific, so desktop/iOS Chrome deployments are not in scope per the advisory.

Impact

This is a genuine but moderate-priority issue, not a top-tier emergency. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N = 6.5) describes a remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity information disclosure whose only real gate is required user interaction (UI:R) - consistent with the description's 'leveraging social engineering.' Impact is confidentiality-only (C:H/I:N/A:N), matching CWE-200 and Chromium's own 'Medium' severity rating. The risk signals are internally consistent and point AWAY from urgency: EPSS is very low at 0.20% (9th percentile), there is no CISA KEV listing (no confirmed active exploitation), and no public exploit code was identified in the provided data. No SSVC decision data was supplied. The one tension worth noting is scope-of-impact: the vector rates C:H (high confidentiality loss) yet the vendor rated the overall bug only 'Medium,' which typically reflects that the leaked data is sensitive but bounded rather than a full credential/same-origin compromise - treat C:H as the worst-case and verify the exact data exposed against the Chromium issue tracker. Bottom line: patch via normal update cadence; the reliance on user interaction plus low EPSS and absent exploitation evidence make widespread opportunistic attacks unlikely.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker lures an Android Chrome user to a malicious or attacker-influenced page and gets them to interact with it (the UI:R / social-engineering prerequisite). The page serves crafted network traffic that triggers the Omnibox information-leak flaw, causing the browser to disclose sensitive information back to the attacker. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, so this remains a plausible but unproven attack path.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 07, 2026

An information disclosure flaw in the Omnibox component of Google Chrome for Android lets a remote attacker leak sensitive data through crafted network traffic, provided the victim first performs an attacker-influenced interaction (a social-engineering lure). Only Chrome on Android builds earlier than 155.0.8059.39 are affected; desktop and iOS Chrome are out of scope per the vendor advisory, and the impact is limited to confidentiality with no integrity or availability effect. Google rates the Chromium severity as Medium, EPSS is low at 0.20 percent (9th percentile), there is no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, though a vendor fix is available and should be applied through normal update channels.

RemediationAI

Apply the vendor fix by updating Google Chrome on Android to version 155.0.8059.39 or later - typically delivered through Google Play automatic updates, or manually via Play Store > Manage apps > Chrome > Update, with the installed version verifiable under Chrome Settings > About Chrome. Google has published the fix in the stable channel advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/10/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_086471744.html, and the underlying defect is tracked publicly at https://issues.chromium.org/issues/501647772. Because the assessed vector requires UI:R, the practical interim control is reducing the chance of a successful lure: restrict browsing to trusted sites on managed Android devices, enforce safe-browsing and URL-blocking policies through Android Enterprise or Chrome policy, and instruct users not to follow unsolicited links or prompts; note that these measures lower likelihood but do not eliminate the flaw, since the Omnibox autocomplete network path itself cannot be fully disabled without degrading search and navigation functionality, and disabling suggestions is only a partial workaround with a significant usability trade-off. There is no indication that blocking a specific port or endpoint is an effective mitigation here, so patch deployment should be treated as the only reliable remedy; software inventory should also confirm that no managed Android fleet is pinned below 155.0.8059.39.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The Omnibox is Chrome's address-bar and search/URL-suggestion subsystem, which combines locally stored history with network-delivered autocomplete and prediction services. This issue is classified under CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor), meaning the root cause is improper handling or insufficient protection of data that the Omnibox code path processes when handling crafted network traffic, resulting in information escaping to a party that should not receive it. Per the CPE entry (cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) and the EUVD affected-version record, the defect exists in the Android rendering/platform build of Chrome below 155.0.8059.39, and the vulnerability is Android-specific rather than cross-platform. The assessed CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N confirms that no authentication is required but that successful exploitation depends on user interaction, that scope remains unchanged, and that the only impact class is a high degree of confidentiality loss. No memory-corruption or code-execution primitive is indicated by the CWE or the vector.
