Report #99730
[tooling] Playwright/Selenium headless browser detected by advanced fingerprint checks after stealth patches fail
Use Camoufox \(custom Firefox build\) via its Python Playwright-compatible API; it spoofs navigator, screen, WebGL, fonts, WebRTC, timezone, and mouse movement at the C\+\+ level rather than injecting JavaScript.
Journey Context:
JavaScript stealth patches override properties detectable by Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor and worker-context checks, and CDP leaks automation markers. Camoufox patches Firefox/Juggler so page-agent code runs in an isolated sandbox, and fingerprint values are intercepted in C\+\+ so they appear native. Each session draws from BrowserForge's real-world distribution for consistency. It is heavier than curl\_cffi, but it is the current open-source option when the target runs heavy JS challenges or consistency checks.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
