Firstly if someone can actually know your sending wallet and also the time of your wallet it goes to show how irresponsible you are and this may just be an avenue for you to get scammed.
Although those information aren’t enough for you to get scammed if you have the correct receiver address then it would go through, but I am skeptical that you would be insensitive enough to give out such informations.

i will transfer about $300k tether from my trustwallet to coinbase wallet using either erc or trc.
if some one knows my both wallet address and time of the transaction; any how can that person do something about that transaction? steal, hack, freeze the account etc?
during the transaction or after?
there is no way he have access to my private keys but i am reading some weird things and wonder if is possible. i am also aware in that case everyone have access to wallet addresses steal and it will be chaos but maybe there is something that i dont know and i want to make sure.
i dont know if it matters or not but to coinbase wallet is newly created wallet
thx for your help
With the wallet address anyone can see the history but not possible to get those funds into their wallets no matter what unless they infect your trust wallet and replace their address while you're making the transaction so be careful with receipient address and amount you want to send to it twice or thrice before clicking send, cause once send its irreversible forever. if some one knows my both wallet address and time of the transaction; any how can that person do something about that transaction? steal, hack, freeze the account etc?

I am not really an IT or blockchain expert but i don't think, that there is any way that a hacker can do anything to access your tokens or coins while they are transfered within the blockchain because to do that this would actually mean that the hacker could access the blockchain itself and if that would ever happen to a chain then this would be the absolute worst case and that blockchain would be dead instantly because it could not be used anymore.
The only thing than can happen is that someone gets access to one of your wallets and once the tokens have arrived they just take them and send them to their own wallet, but for that you also have to make a lot of mistakes before, like saving your private key on your PC and then the PC gets hacked or infested by a virus or something.

First of all I would advise you change wallet from a third party based like Coinbase as that is a third party wallet which can turn offline any day and you can forget about your coins as that saying says "Not your keys,not your coins".
Having said that,the other thing has been already explained that if you use Windows (I don't know about Mac) it is always best to double check the address where you are sending your funds even if it is one of your addresses as there is this malware that changes this to the hacker address,so far in Linux I am not aware of such vulnerability.
Agreed unless you are going to send there just to flip it into something else that's fine, but people NEED to stop using exchanges as wallets, at least for a good portion of their portfolio. I just don't get it. If sent to coinbase I'd flip it into whatever you want then pull immediately off the site. In terms of intercepting your transaction I don't under stand. If they have access to your private keys then yep they do but your public Addy being known won't cause any harm.

Well if they can get a hold of your phone and or laptop because they have installed backdoor on it, then maybe they can steal your coins.
But if you have total control of private keys, then it will be good. However, don't just sit and be confident that there are no hackers that can get into your account. Just practice safe security, always put a password on your wallet that is hard to guess and your seed should not be be saved in your mobile phone or laptop.

Care to show some examples the weird things you have read? I think you are having a misconception about most of it.

ETH enforced OFAC-compliant block, if your fund is somehow tainted with bad stuff that violates some regulation, it could be censored. Do also note, some stablecoins have a feature to freeze funds, so it is another possibility. Overall, A general or even the most sophisticated hacker can't do much with only the address and time of the transactions.

Coinbase Wallet is a self-custodial wallet, as they have claimed. So as long OP keeps the seed phrases secure, it should be able to be exported to other wallets. Also, Coinbase Wallet is not a third-party wallet, I'm not even sure what you mean by a third-party-based wallet.
They only know it if they know it and there's not that risk on it unless they know you personally and might attack you with a $5 wrench which is known as the $5 wrench attack.
Other than that, what you can think of is usually when these exchanges sees that you've made such transactions, that might cause them a trigger and you might get asked for some more verifications.

There's no cryptographic/on chain risk of this.
You can have funds intercepted in your wallet via malware though such as clipboard hijacking (where what you copy gets changed before pasting it in the wallet).

As long as the person do not know your seed phrase or private key, he has no access to your wallet by knowing just the time of transaction and your address.
Also avoid malware.
Also avoid address poisoning.
