22
FAUCET Score

CVE-2020-6447 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting Google Chrome (prior to version 81.0.4044.92) and related distributions like Debian and Fedora. It stems from an inappropriate implementation in developer tools, allowing a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption through a crafted HTML page if the user is convinced to use devtools. With a CVSS score of 8.8 (HIGH), this vulnerability has a network attack vector, low attack complexity, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While it is not actively exploited in the wild (no KEV entry) and lacks public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), it has garnered some community discussion and media coverage, indicating awareness despite its inactive status on hot lists.
