Executive Summary Integer overflow or wraparound in Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network. Exploitability The following table provides an exploitability assessment for this vulnerability at the time of original publication. Publicly disclosed No Exploited No Exploitability assessment Exploitation Unlikely FAQ According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do? The user must visit the attacker‑controlled webpage, and perform the two tap gestures that cause autofill to activate. According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution? This attack requires a user to open a specially crafted file from the attacker to initiate remote code execution. How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability? An attacker could attempt to trick a user into interacting with a malicious request that appears legitimate. When the user approves the request, the attacker could cause the app to obtain an access token on the user’s behalf and send it to a location controlled by the attacker, without the user being clearly informed about what access is being granted.
