UI spoofing via undisclosed Omnibox implementation
Published Nov 10, 2025 · Updated Nov 10, 2025
UI spoofing in the Omnibox in Google Chrome on Android before 142.0.7444.137 allows remote attackers to misrepresent page identity. Google identifies only an inappropriate Omnibox implementation; the restricted issue does not disclose which UI state or validation operation mishandles the crafted HTML page. Exploitation requires remote attackers to persuade users to open the page and perform specific UI gestures, after which Chrome can present spoofed interface information.
