Cross-origin session hijacking via unchecked WebSocket Origin
Published Mar 11, 2026 · Updated Mar 11, 2026
Same-origin policy bypass in ChromeDriver in Google Chrome before 146.0.7680.71 allows remote attackers to hijack a session via a crafted page. ChromeDriver's HTTP server accepts incoming WebSocket connections without checking the Origin header, enabling a page from another origin to control the driver. Exploitation requires interaction with attacker-controlled HTML while a reachable ChromeDriver server is running, and the demonstrated consequence is cross-origin session control rather than code execution.
