User-assisted content spoofing
Published Nov 10, 2021 · Updated Aug 19, 2026
Spoofing in Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) in IE Mode allows remote attackers to misrepresent displayed content after user interaction. Microsoft has not publicly described the flawed operation or request-handling locus that permits the spoofing. Exposure requires a site to load through Windows-only IE Mode, and the published impact is limited to displayed-information confidentiality.
