UI spoofing via crafted HTML page
Published Apr 8, 2026 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Incorrect security UI in Blink in Google Chrome before 147.0.7727.55 allows remote attackers to spoof browser UI via crafted HTML. Google identifies Blink as the affected component, but the restricted Chromium issue leaves the incorrect rendering or trust-boundary operation undisclosed. A user must open the attacker's page; it can misrepresent security-relevant interface information, with no reported data disclosure or code execution.
