CVE-2017-5083

17
FAUCET Score

CVE-2017-5083 describes an inappropriate implementation in Google Chrome's Blink rendering engine, affecting versions prior to 59.0.3071.86 on Mac, Windows, and Linux, and 59.0.3071.92 on Android. This flaw allowed a remote attacker to display user interface elements on a non-attacker-controlled tab through a specially crafted HTML page. With a CVSS score of 4.3 (Medium), this vulnerability requires user interaction (UI:R) and has a low impact on integrity (I:L), as it primarily involves UI spoofing rather than data compromise. There is no evidence of active exploitation, readily available exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB are empty), and while it garnered some community discussion and media coverage, it is not listed on the CISA KEV catalog.
