CVE-2026-0102: Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) Defense in Depth Vulnerability
Under specific conditions, a malicious webpage may trigger autofill population after two consecutive taps, potentially without clear or intentional user consent. This could result in disclosure of stored autofill data such as addresses, email, or phone number metadata.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
This is a low-severity Microsoft Edge autofill privacy issue. A malicious webpage may cause stored autofill details to populate after two taps, possibly without clear user intent. The expected impact is limited disclosure of personal metadata such as address, email, or phone details, not code execution or system compromise.
Executive priority
Treat as routine browser patch management, not an emergency. Prioritize broad Edge update compliance, especially on shared, executive, or regulated-data endpoints where autofill metadata disclosure matters.
Technical view
CVE-2026-0102 affects Microsoft Edge Chromium-based. The CVSS 3.1 vector is AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N, indicating network reachability, high attack complexity, required user interaction, and low confidentiality impact only. Microsoft lists an official fix.
Likely exposure
Organizations using Microsoft Edge Chromium-based with autofill enabled may have exposure. The provided affected version data is not granular enough to identify exact vulnerable builds beyond the vendor advisory.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not support active exploitation; KEV is false. Abuse would require user interaction with a malicious webpage under specific conditions, and the reported impact is limited autofill data disclosure.
Researcher notes
Evidence supports a defense-in-depth autofill consent issue with CWE-359 classification. The advisory data shows official remediation but does not provide exploit details here. Avoid assuming broader Chromium impact, data types beyond the description, or active exploitation.
Mitigation direction
Apply the Microsoft Edge update referenced in the MSRC advisory.
Confirm managed endpoints receive current Edge Chromium updates.
Check Microsoft guidance for exact fixed build information.
Review autofill usage where personal metadata exposure is sensitive.
Validation and detection
Inventory Microsoft Edge Chromium-based installations across managed endpoints.
Compare installed Edge versions against Microsoft’s advisory guidance.
Confirm update policies are not delaying Edge security fixes.
Assess whether autofill stores sensitive personal metadata on high-risk devices.

CWE-359: Exact CWE lookup
Use the exact CWE identifier as the starting point before reviewing related ATT&CK behavior. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.

Exposure of Private Personal Information to an Unauthorized Actor
Exposure of Private Personal Information to an Unauthorized Actor represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
