UI spoofing via undisclosed Paint implementation flaw
Published Jun 30, 2026 · Updated Jun 30, 2026
UI spoofing in Google Chrome before 150.0.7871.47 allows remote attackers to misrepresent browser interface content via a crafted HTML page. The flaw is in Paint, but Google has not disclosed which painting operation mishandles page-controlled content or how the spoof crosses a trusted UI boundary. A target must open the attacker-controlled page; the published impact is limited to deceptive UI rendering, with no reported code execution, data access, or service interruption.
