This method allows attackers, who have already achieved code execution on the target host, to access sensitive browser data like cookies, saved passwords, and authenticated browser sessions.</p> <p><br></br></p> <h2 id="understanding-the-cdp-post-exploitation-technique">Understanding the CDP Post-Exploitation Technique</h2> <p>This technique is not an exploit for a browser vulnerability but rather a method for attackers to gain deeper control and extract data once initial access is established. It addresses a post-compromise scenario, offering a powerful way to escalate privileges within the compromised system&rsquo;s browser context.</p>
