AI Analysis

Impact

Insufficient validation of untrusted input in Chrome’s CustomTabs on Android allows a local attacker to supply a malicious file that causes the browser to render a spoofed user interface. The flaw, identified as CWE‑20, enables UI spoofing that could mislead users into interacting with counterfeit content. Though the official Chromium severity is medium, the vulnerability does not afford direct code execution.

Affected Systems

Google Chrome for Android versions earlier than 150.0.7871.47 are affected. CustomTabs is embedded in the browser and can be invoked by local applications that open or serve a file to the browser.

Risk and Exploitability

Exploitation requires local device access to deliver a malicious file through CustomTabs, which is why the attack vector is inferred to be local. The CVSS score of 3.3 indicates low severity, and the EPSS score of less than 1%, coupled with the lack of a KEV listing, suggests a low overall risk and no documented widespread exploitation.
