Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Insufficient policy enforcement in PDF in Google Chrome on Android prior to 146.0.7680.71 allowed a remote attacker to bypass navigation restrictions via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium)

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

Insufficient policy enforcement in Chrome's PDF viewer on Android allows a remote attacker to bypass navigation restrictions via a crafted HTML page. This could enable malicious PDF content to navigate to arbitrary URLs or perform actions that should be restricted by the browser's security policy.

MitigationUpdate Google Chrome on Android to version 146.0.7680.71 or later. Organizations should ensure mobile device management policies enforce browser updates.

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. Check Chrome for Android version
    Open Chrome on the Android device, tap the three-dot menu, go to Settings, then About Chrome to view the current version number
    Affected if The version displayed is lower than 146.0.7680.71
  2. Identify if PDF viewer is accessible
    Attempt to open a PDF file in Chrome on Android or access any web page containing embedded PDF content
    Affected if PDF files can be opened and rendered within the Chrome browser on the Android device
  3. Verify the Android OS version
    Check the Android OS version in Settings > About Phone > Android version
    Affected if The device runs any supported Android version while using a vulnerable Chrome version (the vulnerability affects Chrome regardless of Android version)
  4. Confirm PDF navigation behavior
    If available, test opening a crafted PDF or HTML page with embedded PDF content that attempts unauthorized URL navigation
    Affected if The PDF viewer allows navigation to arbitrary URLs that would be blocked by Chrome's normal security policy

The environment is affected if Google Chrome on Android is installed at any version below 146.0.7680.71 and the browser's PDF viewer feature is used to open PDF files or HTML pages containing PDF content.
