CVE-2026-0907 involves an incorrect security UI in the Split View feature of Google Chrome prior to version 144.0.7559.59. This vulnerability enables a remote attacker to perform UI spoofing via a crafted HTML page. It is classified under CWE-451 (User Interface Misrepresentation), with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), though Chromium assesses its security severity as Low.

A remote attacker without privileges can exploit this issue by luring a user to a malicious site hosting the crafted HTML page. Exploitation results in UI spoofing, allowing the attacker to misrepresent the browser's interface in Split View, potentially tricking users into disclosing sensitive information or executing unintended actions, aligning with the high-impact CVSS metrics for confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Google's stable channel update for desktop to version 144.0.7559.59 addresses this vulnerability, as detailed in the release announcement at https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2026/01/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_13.html. Further technical details are available in the Chromium issue tracker at https://issues.chromium.org/issues/444653104. Practitioners should prioritize updating affected Chrome installations.
