CVE-2025-62224 is a vulnerability classified under CWE-451, indicating a user interface misrepresentation issue in Microsoft Edge for Android version 1.0.0. This vulnerability allows an authorized attacker—meaning one who has some level of access or privileges on the device or network—to perform spoofing attacks by misrepresenting critical UI information. The flaw could be exploited over a network, implying that an attacker might manipulate network traffic or inject malicious content to deceive users through falsified UI elements such as fake security indicators, URLs, or prompts. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C) indicates that the attack is network-based with low attack complexity, requires privileges but user interaction, and affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability to a limited extent. The scope remains unchanged, meaning the impact is confined to the vulnerable component. No patches are currently listed, and no known exploits have been detected in the wild, but the vulnerability's nature suggests potential for phishing or man-in-the-middle style attacks that could trick users into divulging sensitive information or executing unintended actions. This vulnerability is particularly relevant for organizations relying on Microsoft Edge on Android devices, as it undermines trust in UI elements that users depend on for security decisions.

For European organizations, this vulnerability poses a risk primarily to the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive information accessed via Microsoft Edge on Android devices. Attackers exploiting this flaw could deceive users into interacting with spoofed UI elements, potentially leading to credential theft, unauthorized transactions, or installation of malware. The availability impact is limited but present, as the attacker could disrupt normal browser operations. Sectors such as finance, healthcare, and government, which handle sensitive personal and operational data, are at higher risk. The requirement for user interaction and privileges reduces the likelihood of widespread automated exploitation but does not eliminate targeted attacks, especially in environments where users have elevated privileges or where network security is weak. The vulnerability could also facilitate social engineering campaigns, increasing the overall threat landscape. Given the widespread use of Android devices and Microsoft Edge in Europe, the potential impact is significant enough to warrant attention and remediation.

Organizations should prioritize monitoring for updates from Microsoft and apply patches promptly once they become available to address CVE-2025-62224. Until patches are released, restricting user privileges on Android devices can reduce the risk of exploitation by limiting attackers' ability to leverage the vulnerability. Network-level protections such as enforcing HTTPS, using DNS filtering, and deploying intrusion detection systems can help detect and block spoofing attempts. User education is critical; training users to recognize suspicious UI elements and avoid interacting with unexpected prompts can mitigate social engineering risks. Additionally, organizations should consider deploying mobile device management (MDM) solutions to enforce security policies, control app permissions, and monitor browser usage. Regular security assessments and penetration testing focusing on mobile applications can help identify and remediate similar vulnerabilities proactively.
