Cross-origin data disclosure after renderer compromise
Published Apr 8, 2026 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Information disclosure in Navigation in Google Chrome before 147.0.7727.55 allows remote attackers to leak cross-origin data. Google has not published the faulty Navigation operation because the referenced Chromium issue remains access-restricted. Exploitation requires a crafted HTML page, user interaction, and prior compromise of the renderer process; the reported consequence is cross-origin data disclosure only.
