Until an official fix is available, users should restrict access to the native-server HTTP API and avoid loading untrusted web content that could exploit this vulnerability.
Description
CVE-2026-102878 is a high-severity vulnerability in mcp-chrome-bridge up to version 1.0.31. It involves an origin validation error in the native-server HTTP API that allows attackers to bypass Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) restrictions. This flaw enables malicious web pages to make unauthorized cross-origin requests to the local server, potentially invoking browser automation features such as script execution, reading page content, and capturing screenshots.
