An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-82809 exists.\n\nAffected product: vidIQ Vision for YouTube Extension. 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-2026-82809/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-82809/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-82809","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-82809/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-82809","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g6rc-gmfp-482p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Chrome browser extension","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can exploit a postMessage handler flaw in the vidIQ Vision extension to disclose sensitive information.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulDB","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"},{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"A security flaw has been discovered in vidIQ Vision for YouTube Extension 3.199.0 on Chrome.
