Proctorio Chrome Extension is a browser extension used for online proctoring. The extension contains multiple window.addEventListener(message, …) handlers that do not properly validate the origin of incoming messages. Specifically, an internal messaging bridge processes messages based solely on the presence of a fromWebsite property without verifying the event.origin attribute.
Weakness
The product does not properly verify that the source of data or communication is valid.
