UI spoofing via undisclosed FileSystemAccess implementation
Published May 27, 2025 · Updated May 28, 2025
UI spoofing in Google Chrome before 137.0.7151.55 allows remote attackers to misrepresent browser UI through a crafted HTML page. Google identifies the FileSystemAccess API as the affected locus but has not publicly disclosed the incorrect operation on untrusted page content. Exploitation requires user interaction with the crafted page, and the published assessment bounds the consequence to information disclosure.
