Address-bar spoofing on Android
Published Sep 29, 2026 · Updated Sep 29, 2026
UI misrepresentation in Google Chrome on Android before 154.0.8037.57 allows remote attackers to spoof the address bar via crafted HTML. Chrome identifies the Omnibox as the affected UI, but its public CVE record and release note do not explain the incorrect rendering or state transition. Exploitation requires the crafted page to be opened in Chrome on Android; the reported consequence is a misleading address bar, not direct data access.
