DumpBrowserSecrets is a publicly available post‑exploitation tool that harvests browser‑stored credentials, session cookies, OAuth refresh tokens, credit card data, autofill entries and browsing history from Chromium-based (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera variants, Vivaldi) and Firefox browsers. It bypasses Chrome's App‑Bound Encryption by spawning a headless Chromium process and injecting a DLL to use the IElevator COM interface, handles DPAPI and NSS decryption where appropriate, includes multiple evasion techniques (string obfuscation, API hashing, PPID/argument spoofing, handle duplication), outputs structured JSON, and includes detection and mitigation recommendations for enterprise defenders.
