I don't see a CVE for this anywhere. Security folks must be asleep at the wheel /s

    I was on some website the other day and I opened the browser console for unrelated reasons. They had a giant message there that was like "STOP. If someone asked you to paste something here, you are probably going to be hacked. Do not do anything here unless you know what you're doing."

    Which, admittedly, is probably good advice.

    Someone would say something like 'you can unlock a secret page on Facebook, just press F12 and paste this in', and the snippet would upload the victim's session token to the scammer's server. So that they can use the account to promote a crypto scam or whatever.

    If you paste code into the consol the code writer can do anything you can do on any website in the context of the current website you are on. So for example download files, capture any data, or take over and use your active session remotely.

    JS in Japan can mean elementary schoolgirls.

    But I swear Google used to be smarter than this. It's the training data from 4chan that poisoned it's mind, surely.
