Overview

A UI spoofing vulnerability (CVE-2025-1917) was discovered in Google Chrome's Browser UI on Android versions prior to 134.0.6998.35. The vulnerability stems from an inappropriate implementation that could allow remote attackers to perform UI spoofing attacks through specially crafted HTML pages.
