AI Analysis

Impact

The UI misrepresentation flaw in Mobile Chrome on Android before version 156.0.8078.47 allows a remote attacker to deliver a crafted HTML page that spoofs UI elements. By overlaying or disguising controls, the page can cause legitimate controls to appear altered. This UI redressing flaw (CWE-451) can lead to unintended user interactions with elements that may not behave as intended, but it does not provide code execution or root access beyond the browser sandbox.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the Android mobile version of Google Chrome. Patches are available from Chrome version 156.0.8078.47 onward; any older Android Chrome installation is susceptible.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 classifies this flaw as high severity, yet the EPSS score is <1%, indicating a very low probability that it will be actively exploited. The vulnerability is not currently listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Exploitation requires the victim to open the malicious or modified web page in Chrome on an Android device. Once the page is rendered, the spoofed UI can be used by an attacker to manipulate the user into performing unintended actions, such as submitting credentials, but it does not allow remote code execution outside the secondary sandbox.
