Overview

@steipete/summarize is a Link → clean text → summary.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Authorization via the extension automation feature. An attacker can perform unauthorized browser automation actions by tricking a user into interacting with attacker-controlled content, which causes the agent to invoke enabled automation tools such as navigation or debugger-backed actions without the required user approval. This is only exploitable if the extension automation feature is enabled.
