Credential theft via hidden fullscreen origin indicators
Published Jul 15, 2026 · Updated Jul 15, 2026
Origin spoofing in Zen Browser before 1.19.13b allows remote attackers to impersonate trusted sites through a malicious webpage. Fullscreen mode hides the address bar and origin indicators without maintaining a conspicuous, non-spoofable notice, allowing page content to imitate browser or website interfaces. Exploitation requires a user to open and interact with attacker-controlled content; credentials entered into the imitation interface become exposed.
