Byte by Byte: Unmasking Browser Fingerprinting at the Function Level using V8 Bytecode Transformers
Pouneh Nikkhah Bahrami, Dylan Cutler, Igor Bilogrevic
Abstract
Browser fingerprinting enables persistent cross-site user tracking via subtle techniques that often evade conventional defenses or cause website breakage when script-level blocking countermeasures are applied. Addressing these challenges requires detection methods offering both function-level precision to minimize breakage and inherent robustness against code obfuscation and URL manipulation.
