Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 85.0.4183.121

Description The issue is related to insufficient policy enforcement in extensions, allowing an attacker who convinces a user to install a malicious extension to obtain potentially sensitive information via a crafted Chrome Extension. This could enable a remote attacker to access confidential data.

Recommendations For Google Chrome versions prior to 85.0.4183.121, update to version 85.0.4183.121 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the installation of extensions to only trusted sources until the update is applied.
