Google · Google Chrome · CVE-2018-6138
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Google Chrome versions prior to 67.0.3396.62
**Description**
The issue is related to insufficient policy enforcement in the Extensions API, allowing an attacker to bypass navigation restrictions. This can be achieved by convincing a user to install a malicious extension, which can then be used to exploit the weakness. The vulnerability exists due to inadequate input validation, enabling a remote attacker to circumvent navigation limitations using a specially crafted Chrome Extension.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 67.0.3396.62, update to version 67.0.3396.62 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the installation of extensions to trusted sources and avoiding the use of unverified extensions.
