Browser Harness Grants LLMs Unrestricted Chrome Control
Browser Harness is an open-source tool that grants LLMs unrestricted, self-modifying control over a Chrome browser via the Chrome DevTools Protocol, with no sandboxing, guardrails, or human-in-the-loop checkpoints. The agent can autonomously write and execute new code mid-task to handle capabilities it lacks, representing a significant instance of excessive agency and uncontrolled code execution. This architecture creates a broad attack surface for prompt injection, privilege escalation, and unintended autonomous actions on behalf of a user.
