Security UI spoofing via crafted HTML navigation
Published Feb 21, 2024 · Updated Feb 13, 2025
Security UI spoofing in Google Chrome before 122.0.6261.57 allows remote attackers to misrepresent browser security indicators via crafted HTML. The flaw is in the Navigation component, but Google has not disclosed the incorrect navigation operation or validation failure because the issue remains access-restricted. A user must load attacker-controlled HTML; the demonstrated consequence is deceptive security UI, with no published evidence of code execution or service interruption.
