Published Apr 17, 2024 · Updated Feb 13, 2025
Inappropriate Autofill implementation in Google Chrome before 124.0.6367.60 allows attackers to spoof browser UI via a crafted app. Public Chrome materials identify Autofill as the locus but do not disclose which security check mishandles the crafted app. Exploitation requires convincing a user to install the malicious app, after which the app can present spoofed browser UI; no other impact is reported.
