Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm Samsung Internet browser is installed
    Open Android Settings > Apps and search for 'Samsung Internet' or check for the browser icon in the app drawer
    Affected if Samsung Internet browser is present on the device
  2. Locate the version number
    In Samsung Internet, tap the three-line menu icon > Settings > About Samsung Internet, or go to Settings > Apps > Samsung Internet > App info to view the version
    Affected if A version number is displayed in the About section or app info
  3. Compare the installed version to the affected range
    Note the version number shown (for example, 14.0.1.50 or 13.2.2.13) and verify it is lower than 14.0.1.62
    Affected if The installed version is below 14.0.1.62 (for example, 14.0.1.61, 14.0.0.x, or any earlier version)
  4. Confirm URL spoofing is possible
    This vulnerability exploits how the browser displays URLs in the address bar. No special configuration check is needed; the flaw exists in the URL rendering logic of vulnerable versions
    Affected if Samsung Internet version is below 14.0.1.62 and the browser is used for web navigation

The device is affected if Samsung Internet browser version is lower than 14.0.1.62, as the URL spoofing vulnerability exists in all prior versions.
