Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: Required: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a user to take some action before the vulnerability can be exploited.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the impacted component.
Integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact on the impacted component.
Availability: Low: Performance is reduced or there are interruptions in resource availability. Even if repeated exploitation of the vulnerability is possible, the attacker does not have the ability to completely deny service to legitimate users. The resources in the impacted component are either partially available all of the time, or fully available only some of the time, but overall there is no direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 6 Nov 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

Upgrade Google Chrome to 141.0.7390.54.

AI-suggested

European organizations should prioritize updating all Mac-based Chrome browsers to version 141.0.7390.54 or later to remediate the vulnerability. Implement strict update policies and automated patch management to ensure timely deployment. Educate users about the risks of opening unsolicited or unexpected video files, especially from untrusted sources. Employ email and web filtering solutions to detect and block malicious multimedia content. Consider deploying endpoint security solutions capable of analyzing and sandboxing media files before execution. Monitor network traffic and browser logs for unusual domain resolution or spoofing indicators. Additionally, enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA) to reduce the impact of credential theft resulting from phishing attacks leveraging this vulnerability. Regularly review and update incident response plans to include scenarios involving domain spoofing and social engineering attacks.

Description

Inappropriate implementation in Storage in Google Chrome on Mac prior to 141.0.7390.54 allowed a remote attacker to perform domain spoofing via a crafted video file. (Chromium security severity: Low)

Impact

For European organizations, this vulnerability could facilitate targeted phishing campaigns or social engineering attacks that exploit domain spoofing to deceive users. Confidentiality could be compromised if users are tricked into submitting credentials or sensitive data to spoofed domains. Integrity and availability impacts are limited but possible if attackers manipulate stored data or cause browser instability through crafted media. Organizations with a significant Mac user base running outdated Chrome versions are at higher risk. Sectors such as finance, government, and critical infrastructure could be targeted due to the potential for credential theft or unauthorized access. The requirement for user interaction limits automated exploitation but does not eliminate risk, especially in environments where users frequently handle multimedia content. The absence of known exploits in the wild reduces immediate threat but does not preclude future exploitation once the vulnerability becomes publicly known.
