V15 - Secure Coding and Architecture Incomplete cleanup
Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the victim to use Google Chrome on Android and to open attacker-controlled content rendered through the CustomTabs feature (UI:R - the user must load the crafted HTML page). The flaw is an incomplete cleanup (CWE-459) of CustomTabs state that enables a web-origin-policy bypass; it does not require authentication (PR:N) or any special victim-side configuration beyond normal CustomTabs usage. Limiting factors: the attack is confined to Android Chrome versions prior to 155.0.8059.39, succeeds only against users who are induced to open the malicious page, and yields only partial (Low) confidentiality/integrity impact with no availability effect and no scope change (S:U), so it cannot by itself achieve full account takeover or code execution.

Impact

This is a moderate, not top-tier, priority. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N, base 5.4) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw that nonetheless requires user interaction (the victim must load a crafted HTML page) and yields only Low confidentiality and Low integrity impact with no availability effect - consistent with an origin-policy/sandboxing weakness rather than full code execution. Real-world signals reinforce the 'medium' read: EPSS is 0.20% (9th percentile), indicating very low near-term mass-exploitation probability; the CVE is NOT in CISA KEV; and no public POC is referenced. No SSVC decision record is provided in the input, so exploitation status, automatability, and technical-impact classifications cannot be cited - this is a gap. The signals are internally consistent (low EPSS, no KEV, UI-dependent, partial impact all point the same direction), so this reads as a genuinely lower-urgency High-severity-by-Chromium-labeling issue rather than a conflicting-data situation. Note the Chromium 'High' severity label reflects browser-project impact conventions and should not be conflated with an NVD/CVSS 'High' rating, which this is not (5.4 = Medium).

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker hosts a malicious web page and lures an Android Chrome user to open it, typically via a link that invokes a Custom Tab. The incomplete cleanup in CustomTabs lets the crafted page bypass the web origin policy, allowing it to read or influence content it should be isolated from across origins. No public exploit code is referenced, and the attack depends on the victim actually opening the attacker-controlled page.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 14, 2026

Web origin policy bypass in Google Chrome on Android lets unauthenticated remote attackers cross same-origin boundaries by inducing a victim to open a crafted HTML page that is rendered through the CustomTabs feature, in releases prior to 155.0.8059.39. Exploitation requires user interaction (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N) and yields only partial confidentiality and integrity impact with no availability effect and no scope change, so this is a moderate, not top-tier, priority. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low at 0.20% (9th percentile), though the vendor has shipped a fixed Chrome release and Chromium rates the issue High severity on its internal scale.

RemediationAI

Apply the vendor fix by updating Google Chrome on Android to 155.0.8059.39 or later through the Google Play Store or your managed app-update channel; this is the primary and complete remediation and is already available (patch available from vendor per the stable channel advisory at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/10/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_086471744.html). Because exploitation depends on a user opening a crafted HTML page inside CustomTabs, interim risk reduction focuses on that path: enforce minimum Chrome versions via Android Enterprise/MDM app-version compliance policies and block or delay updates roll-out only where compatibility testing demands it, understanding that unpatched devices retain the origin-bypass exposure. Where CustomTabs-based in-app browsing is not required, disabling or replacing it (for example routing untrusted links to a standalone browser or a hardened WebView with strict allowlisting) removes the attack surface, but the trade-off is degraded in-app browsing, broken SSO/checkout flows and potential regressions in apps that rely on CustomTabs session state. URL and domain allowlisting for links opened from untrusted content plus user awareness guidance against opening unsolicited links reduces exposure but is bypassable and should not be treated as a substitute for updating. Monitor Chromium issue 552115620 for any clarification of affected builds; note that no public exploit code has been identified, so exploitation is not currently considered likely (EPSS 0.20%, 9th percentile).

Technical ContextAI · show details

CustomTabs is an Android mechanism that lets a host application launch a Chrome-rendered browsing session inside its own UI while sharing Chrome's cookie jar, session state and rendering engine. Because the tab is embedded in the context of the hosting app and shares state across navigations, any residual session or origin data must be reliably cleared between loads. The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-459 (Incomplete Cleanup): that cleanup step is incomplete in affected builds, so an attacker-controlled page loaded through CustomTabs can bypass web origin policy and reach resources, state or actions that should belong to a different origin. The assessed vector (network-reachable, no privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope) confirms this is a browser-side origin-isolation defect exploited purely through page content rather than a memory-safety or code-execution flaw; impact is bounded to Low confidentiality and Low integrity with no availability loss. CPE data (cpe:2.3:a:google:chrome:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) maps the exposure to Chrome builds below 155.0.8059.39 on Android, and the associated Chromium bug is tracked under issues.chromium.org issue 552115620.
