Claude Chrome Extension Flaw Allowed Silent Prompting
⚠️ Researchers disclosed a vulnerability in Anthropic's Claude Google Chrome extension that allowed any website to silently inject prompts into the assistant simply by loading a page. Koi Security researcher Oren Yomtov reported the issue chained an overly permissive origin allowlist with a DOM-based XSS in an Arkose Labs CAPTCHA hosted on a-cdn.claude.ai. Exploitation could let attackers steal tokens, conversation history, and perform actions on behalf of victims. Anthropic patched the extension to require an exact origin match and Arkose Labs fixed the XSS.
