CVE-2017-5120
El uso incorrecto de redirecciones no coincidentes de www en la navegación por el explorador en Google Chrome, en versiones anteriores a la 61.0.3163.79 para Mac, Windows y Linux y a la 61.0.3163.81 para Android, permitía que un atacante remoto degradase las peticiones HTTPS a HTTP mediante una página HTML manipulada. En otras palabras, Chrome podría transmitir texto en claro incluso aunque el usuario hubiese introducido una URL https. Esto se debe a un método alternativo mal diseñado para los casos en los que el nombre de dominio en una URL casi coincide con el nombre de dominio en un certificado del servidor X.509 (pero difiere en la subcadena "www." inicial).
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N
- Puntuación base: 6.5
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 1.11%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 65
- Fecha de la puntuación: 8/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

In other words, Chrome could transmit cleartext even though the user had entered an https URL, because of a misdesigned workaround for cases where the domain name in a URL almost matches the domain name in an X.509 server certificate (but differs in the initial \"www.\" substring)."
