This flaw permits a malicious web page to access resources that should be restricted, potentially exposing sensitive information or enabling further attacks on the device. The Chromium severity label for this issue is Low, and the vulnerability is categorized under CWE-346, reflecting a bypass of authentication or authorization controls.

Affected Systems

The affected product is Google Chrome for Android, versions prior to 151.0.7922.72. Users running any earlier release on an Android device are vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability
