CVE-2016-9473
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.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.93%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
