PinchTab is a standalone HTTP server that gives AI agents direct control over a Chrome browser. PinchTab through allow arbitrary JavaScript execution through and when the request uses mode, even if is disabled. correctly enforces the guard, which is disabled by default. However, in the affected releases, accepted a user-controlled expression, embedded it directly into executable JavaScript, and evaluated it in the browser context without checking the same policy. This is a security-policy bypass rather than a separate authentication bypass. Exploitation still requires authenticated API access, but a caller with the server token can execute arbitrary JavaScript in a tab context even when the operator explicitly disabled JavaScript evaluation. The current worktree fixes this by applying the same policy boundary to mode in that already exists on , while preserving the non-code wait modes. As of time of publication, a patched version is not yet available.
