An innovative ultrasonic side-channel attack that can leak users' data on smart devices, through leveraging Browser Extensions in terms of their streamlined access to privileged browser resources, is introduced.

Abstract

In this work, we introduce an innovative ultrasonic side-channel attack that can leak users' data on smart devices, through leveraging Browser Extensions in terms of their streamlined access to privileged browser resources. Our attack can covertly monitor users' private data based on attackers' specified commands and facilitate surreptitious data transmission in practice.
