CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Opera for Android before 54.0.2669.49432 is vulnerable to a sandboxed cross-origin iframe bypass attack. By using a service working inside a sandboxed iframe it is possible to bypass the normal sandboxing attributes. This allows an attacker to make forced redirections without any user interaction from a third-party context.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2019-19788 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in full integrity compromise (data manipulation), with a CVSS base score of 5.5.
