UI spoofing via crafted HTML and user gestures
Published Aug 6, 2024 · Updated Mar 19, 2025
UI spoofing in Google Chrome before 127.0.6533.72 allows remote attackers to misrepresent browser UI via a crafted HTML page. The public Chromium record identifies the locus only as an inappropriate implementation in HTML; the restricted issue does not disclose the incorrect operation. Exploitation requires a victim to perform specific UI gestures on the attacker-controlled page, enabling deceptive interface presentation without reported disclosure or service interruption.
