CVE-2017-15394· NVD / CVE Program· CNA Chrome

Insufficient Policy Enforcement in Extensions in Google Chrome prior to 62.0.3202.62 allowed a remote attacker to perform domain spoofing in

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 27/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.8% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 78.4% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: chromium-browser (Debian:9) 62.0.3202.75-1~deb9u1; chromium (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 93.0.4577.82-1.1; chromium-browser (Red Hat:rhel_extras:6) 0:62.0.3202.62-2.el6_9.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to chromium-browser (Debian:9) 62.0.3202.75-1~deb9u1; chromium (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 93.0.4577.82-1.1; chromium-browser (Red Hat:rhel_extras:6) 0:62.0.3202.62-2.el6_9 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Insufficient Policy Enforcement in Extensions in Google Chrome prior to 62.0.3202.62 allowed a remote attacker to perform domain spoofing in permission dialogs via IDN homographs in a crafted Chrome Extension.

  • google chromebefore 62.0.3202.62

Versions reported by the vendor

Affected version ranges reported by the assigning authority (Chrome). Independent of NVD's CPE analysis and usually ahead of it.

Exploit status

Proof of concept available

A public proof of concept or detection signature exists. Exploit knowledge is out there; don't delay patching.

Evidence

  • Proof-of-concept repository on GitHub ×1

Noroxi does not host or link to exploit code. Metasploit module names and Nuclei template ids are shown (names, not code); Exploit-DB entries and PoC repositories are given as counts only.

FIRST EPSS daily score; only changes of 0.01 or more are recorded (step chart).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No commit or PR link among the references.

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
