20
FAUCET Score

CVE-2018-6039 describes an insufficient data validation vulnerability in Google Chrome's DevTools, affecting versions prior to 64.0.3282.119, as well as Debian and Red Hat distributions. This medium-severity flaw (CVSS 6.1) could allow a remote attacker, through user interaction with a crafted Chrome Extension, to potentially leak cross-origin user data. There is no evidence of active exploitation, nor is public exploit code available, and community discussion and media coverage have been minimal.
