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. Identify Chrome for iOS installation
    On the iOS device, go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage (or Apps on iPad). Scroll down to locate Google Chrome in the list of installed applications.
    Affected if Google Chrome for iOS is not present on the device (not affected)
  2. Determine installed Chrome version
    Open Google Chrome on the iOS device, tap the three-dot menu, go to Settings, then tap Chrome to view the version information. Alternatively, navigate to chrome://version in the address bar.
    Affected if Version information cannot be retrieved or the browser is not Chrome for iOS
  3. Compare version against vulnerability threshold
    Compare the displayed version number to 149.0.7827.53. The version format typically appears as 149.x.x.x or similar.
    Affected if Installed version is less than 149.0.7827.53 (for example, 148.x.x.x or earlier)
  4. Assess active usage exposure
    Determine if the device actively uses Chrome for iOS for web browsing. Check if Chrome is set as the default browser or regularly used by device users.
    Affected if Chrome for iOS is actively used with a version below 149.0.7827.53

The environment is affected if any iOS device has Google Chrome for iOS installed with a version lower than 149.0.7827.53 and the browser is actively used for web browsing.
