Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability involves missing authorization checks in the Near Field Communication (NFC) functionality of Google Chrome before version 154.0.8037.57. A remote attacker who had already compromised the renderer process could exploit this flaw to bypass system access restrictions by using a specially crafted HTML page.

Detection Guidance

This vulnerability is specific to Google Chrome versions prior to 154.0.8037.57. To detect it, check your Chrome version by running chrome://version/ in the browser. If your version is below 154.0.8037.57, the system is vulnerable. Update Chrome to the latest version to mitigate the risk.

Impact Analysis

If you are using an affected version of Chrome, an attacker could potentially gain unauthorized access to NFC-related system features or data through a compromised renderer process. This could lead to further exploitation of your system or exposure of sensitive information.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could potentially lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, which may violate compliance requirements under GDPR or HIPAA if personal or health information is exposed. Organizations must ensure systems are patched to maintain compliance.

Mitigation Strategies

Update Google Chrome to version 154.0.8037.57 or later to address the missing authorization issue in NFC.
