Android WebView Universal Cross-site Scripting

GHSA-36j3-xxf7-4pqg

Advisory Details

A universal cross-site scripting (UXSS) vulnerability, CVE-2020-6506 (https://crbug.com/1083819), has been identified in the Android WebView system component, which allows cross-origin iframes to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the top-level document. This vulnerability affects React Native apps which use a `react-native-webview` that allows navigation to arbitrary URLs, and when that app runs on systems with an Android WebView version prior to 83.0.4103.106. ## Pending mitigation Ensure users update their Android WebView system component via the Google Play Store to 83.0.4103.106 or higher to avoid this UXSS. 'react-native-webview' is working on a mitigation but it could take some time. ### References https://alesandroortiz.com/articles/uxss-android-webview-cve-2020-6506/
