## What it is
CursedChrome is a Chrome extension implant that converts a victim's Chrome browser into a fully-functional HTTP proxy, letting an operator browse the web authenticated as the victim. It is designed for professional red teams to simulate malicious browser extension attacks against BeyondCorp/zero-trust environments.

## Use cases
- simulate malicious browser extension attacks in red team engagements
- proxy web traffic through a compromised browser session
- test defenses against browser extension implants
- access web apps authenticated as a victim during authorized penetration tests
- demonstrate BeyondCorp zero-trust bypass via browser session hijacking

## When to choose
- you are a red teamer emulating browser-extension-based attacks
- you need to route traffic through a victim's authenticated browser session with correct source IP, cookies, and client certificates
- you are testing defenses against malicious extensions in Chrome or Chrome OS environments

## When to avoid
- you want a general-purpose proxy or VPN for personal use
- you lack explicit authorization to test the target systems
- you need a defensive tool - use the author's ChromeGalvanizer instead
