Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 88.0.4324.96
Description The issue is related to insufficient policy enforcement in the File System API, allowing a remote attacker to bypass file extension policy via a crafted HTML page. This is due to weaknesses in the authentication procedure. The estimated number of potentially affected devices worldwide is not specified. There is no information about real-world incidents where this issue was exploited.
Recommendations For versions prior to 88.0.4324.96, update to version 88.0.4324.96 or later to resolve the issue.
