Impact
The vulnerability involves incorrect rendering of the security UI when Chrome enters fullscreen mode. An attacker can serve a crafted HTML page that triggers fullscreen and displays a fake security banner, potentially misleading users into trusting a malicious site. This exploit can be used for social‑engineering attacks, phishing, or otherwise manipulating user trust.
Affected Systems
Google Chrome browsers prior to version 147.0.7727.55 on all supported platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux) are affected.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 4.3 indicates a medium severity. EPSS less than 1 % suggests low probability of exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers would need to deliver a malicious web page that directs Chrome to enter fullscreen; no additional privileges are required.
