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.
-
Confirm Google Chrome for Android is installedOpen Chrome on the Android device, tap the three-dot menu, go to Settings, and check the version number displayed under 'Chrome version' in the 'About Chrome' sectionAffected if Chrome for Android is not installed - the vulnerability does not apply to other browsers or Chrome variants on other platforms
-
Verify the exact Chrome for Android versionNavigate to chrome://version in the Chrome address bar on the Android device; the version number is displayed in the first lineAffected if The version shown is less than 150.0.7871.47 - versions below this threshold are affected
-
Confirm WebView is being usedCheck if the device runs apps that embed Chrome WebView (common in apps with in-app browsers or hybrid web views); on Android 10+ this can be verified in Settings > Apps > Chrome > Open by defaultAffected if Chrome WebView is actively used by applications - the vulnerability only manifests when WebView processes the crafted HTML page
A device is affected if Google Chrome for Android is installed with a version lower than 150.0.7871.47 and the WebView component processes external or untrusted HTML content.
