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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify iOS devices with Chrome installedUse your MDM solution or device inventory to enumerate iOS devices that have Google Chrome browser installedAffected if Chrome is present on any managed iOS device
-
Retrieve the Chrome version on iOSOn each iOS device, open Chrome, tap Settings, then tap About Chrome to display the current version numberAffected if Version is visible and can be compared
-
Compare against vulnerable version rangeCheck if the installed version falls below 150.0.7871.47 - the vulnerable range is any version prior to 150.0.7871.47Affected if Installed version is less than 150.0.7871.47
-
Assess exposure to untrusted network trafficDetermine whether users on affected devices could process malicious network traffic while performing UI gestures in the OmniboxAffected if Vulnerable Chrome version AND ability to process untrusted network traffic exists
An organization is affected if any managed iOS device runs Chrome versions prior to 150.0.7871.47 and can process untrusted network traffic while users interact with the Omnibox.
