NVD
Vulnerability Summary
Tencent BrowserSkill through 0.4.2 contains a missing authentication vulnerability that allows local attackers to impersonate the bsk daemon because remoteSocket() connects to the loopback WebSocket without credentials or peer verification. Attackers who bind the daemon port before it starts or after it exits receive the extension's full tool surface, including evaluate, to run JavaScript through CDP in logged-in browser tabs.
