Chrome: User Interface (UI) Misrepresentation of Critical Information
CVE-2026-0907 is a critical-severity user interface (UI) misrepresentation of critical information vulnerability in Chrome from Google, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 144.0.7559.59 as the first without the flaw, so updating Chrome to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 8.82% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is in the top 4.73% of all scored CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Update Chrome to 144.0.7559.59 or a later version.
- Read the advisory on chromereleases.googleblog.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
Incorrect security UI in Split View in Google Chrome prior to 144.0.7559.59 allowed a remote attacker to perform UI spoofing via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Low)
Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.
The underlying weakness: User Interface (UI) Misrepresentation of Critical Information
The user interface (UI) does not properly represent critical information to the user, allowing the information - or its source - to be obscured or spoofed. This is often a component in phishing attacks.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Perform data validation (e.g. syntax, length, etc.) before interpreting the data.
- Create a strategy for presenting information, and plan for how to display unusual characters.
