If you cannot patch yet, users should exercise caution when entering fullscreen mode on untrusted sites and avoid entering sensitive information if the address bar or origin indicator appears suspicious.

Description

Maxthon Browser for Android versions before 7.5.8.103 have an address bar spoofing vulnerability. This flaw allows remote attackers to create a fake address bar during fullscreen mode, misleading users about the true origin of the web page. The vulnerability arises because the browser lacks a persistent fullscreen notification or trusted origin indicator when the Fullscreen API is used. Attackers can exploit this to display a counterfeit address bar showing a trusted domain while presenting attacker-controlled content, potentially tricking users into disclosing credentials via phishing.
