An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-9473 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Brave Software Brave Browser iOS before 1.2.18 and Brave Browser Android 1.9.56 and earlier. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9473/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9473/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-9473","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9473/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-9473","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-93xm-4rmr-qw86"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Brave Browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can spoof the address bar to display malicious content under legitimate domains, tricking users in Brave Browser on iOS and Android.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"browser","vendor":"brave"}],"cvss":{"score":4.7,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"},{"id":"CWE-451","name":"User Interface (UI) Misrepresentation of Critical Information"}],"description":"Brave Browser iOS before 1.2.18 and Brave Browser Android 1.9.56 and earlier suffer from Full Address Bar Spoofing, allowing attackers to trick a victim by displaying a malicious page for legitimate domain names.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Brave Software Brave Browser iOS before 1.2.18 and Brave Browser Android 1.9.56 and earlier","id":"CVE-2016-9473","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2016-9474"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Revive Adserver All versions before 3.2.5 and 4.0.0","id":"CVE-2016-9472"},"products":["Brave Software Brave Browser iOS before 1.2.18 and Brave Browser Android 1.9.56 and earlier"],"published":"2017-03-28","related":[{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in https://github.com/brave/brave-core","id":"CVE-2021-22917","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-12"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Open redirect in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-52263","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-30"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Open redirect in Brave Browser Android","id":"CVE-2023-28364","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-30"},{"cvss_score":4.7,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000461","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-03"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can spoof the address bar to display malicious content under legitimate domains, tricking users in Brave Browser on iOS and Android.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9473/"}
