CVE-2016-5145 describes a Same Origin Policy (SOP) bypass vulnerability in Blink, the rendering engine used by Google Chrome prior to version 52.0.2743.116. This flaw allowed remote attackers to execute crafted JavaScript to bypass SOP by failing to preserve a taint property during a structure-clone operation on an ImageBitmap object derived from a cross-origin image. Rated with a CVSS v3 score of 8.8 (HIGH), it has a low attack complexity and requires user interaction, but could lead to high impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. There is no evidence of active exploitation, nor are there publicly available exploits in Metasploit, Nuclei, or ExploitDB. Community discussion and media coverage for this CVE are minimal.
