I submitted a remote code execution to the browser-use about 40 days ago. GHSA-r2x7-6hq9-qp7v
I am a bit stunned by the lack of response. Any safety concerns in this project?
That's pretty good, I've achieved pretty much the same thing using the vercel's agent-browser, but I've tried playwright and it worked easily as good. Its good for scraping, automating stuff in the browser.
agent-browser uses playwright so it struggles with things like cross-origin-iframes - on the other hand, browser harness uses raw cdp, which is unrestrictive. It's discussed in this blog post! https://browser-use.com/posts/bitter-lesson-agent-harnesses

It's called "agentic coding" for all I know, and isn't a new paradigm, the whole purpose with agentic coding is that it uses tools to do their thing, then those tools could be structured as the good old JSON schema tools next to the implemented runtime, or as MCP, or HTTP API or whatever, the "paradigm" is the same: Have a harness, have a LLM, let the harness define tools that the LLM can use those.
If I'm understanding correctly, this might be the first example of just-in-time agentic coding that I've come across.

Hey! Where did you submit this exactly? Can you provide a link? Will ask others on the team also, but I am not sure what you are referring to.

I think the usecase here is to go beyond scraping. I think you can use it as a tool for agent harnesses and make it part of a larger workflow.

IIUC the point is that the agent has the ability to modify itself?
I was wondering when someone would finally build this.
Anyway, of course this will be superseded by a harness that provides freedom to complete any task within the OS.
it will be crazy when someone builds this
Sawyer Hood's dev-browser[0] allows the browser to write playwright JS code directly. Do you have cases where his approach fails and yours works?

PW is usually easier to detect. Using raw CDP is in our opinion much better for this.
I’d call it “open washing”, but it looks cool. Good luck with it
Curious why? You can just take this and run locally or deploy anywhere you'd like with any provider agent provider.
And that's how I woke up with an LLM roleplaying with itself while looking at porn.
Lmaooo.
