CVE-2021-44683 (GCVE-0-2021-44683)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-03-25 21:13 – Updated: 2024-08-04 04:25
VLAI?
Summary
The DuckDuckGo browser 7.64.4 on iOS allows Address Bar Spoofing due to mishandling of the JavaScript window.open function (used to open a secondary browser window). This could be exploited by tricking users into supplying sensitive information such as credentials, because the address bar would display a legitimate URL, but content would be hosted on the attacker's web site.
Severity ?
No CVSS data available.
