Address-bar spoofing via FullScreen UI misrepresentation
Published Sep 1, 2026 · Updated Sep 2, 2026
UI misrepresentation in Google Chrome before 152.0.7977.75 allows remote attackers to spoof the address bar via a crafted HTML page. The FullScreen component presents attacker-controlled page content without preserving an accurate browser-origin indicator; Google has not disclosed a more specific code-level fault. Exploitation requires user interaction with the crafted page and its fullscreen presentation, enabling a deceptive origin display without reported code execution or direct data access.
