CVSS 3.0
6.5 mediumCVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:NCVE-2016-1699
Medium (6.5). EPSS 1.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
WebKit/Source/devtools/front_end/devtools.js in the Developer Tools (aka DevTools) subsystem in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.79, does not ensure that the remoteFrontendUrl parameter is associated with a chrome-devtools-frontend.appspot.com URL, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted URL.
