| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Google Chrome versions prior to 126.0.6478.54
Description
The issue is related to a policy bypass in the CORS mechanism, which can be exploited by a remote attacker to bypass discretionary access control. This can be achieved through a crafted HTML page, potentially allowing the attacker to disclose protected information. The severity of this issue is medium, according to Chromium's security severity rating.
Recommendations
For Google Chrome versions prior to 126.0.6478.54, update to version 126.0.6478.54 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive information and avoiding the use of potentially vulnerable HTML pages until the update is applied.
