kpsdk-solver

A Playwright-based solver for Kasada's bot defense platform.

Available as a replacement to Browser.newPage() and BrowserContext.newPage()

Features

  • Extensive manipulation of the Kasada SDK
    • Use custom script import
    • Use custom configuration
    • Inspect SDK messages
    • Interact with Kasada's Fetch API
    • Use same-page client token regeneration
  • Support for CommonJS (CJS) and ECMAScript module (ESM) use
  • Seamless integration with the Playwright library

Limitations

  • Only compatible with Playwright
  • Fails to bypass detection on... (based on common issues - results may vary)

Installation

$ npm install kpsdk-solver

Usage

import playwright from 'playwright';
import Solver from 'kpsdk-solver';

const solver = new Solver(config);

(async () => {
  const browser = await playwright.firefox.launch({ headless: true });
  const context = await browser.newContext();

  const page = await solver.create(context, page => {
    // optional, page callback; access the page instance before the solver uses it
    console.log(page.url()); // should return about:blank or smthn
  });

  // retrieve the SDK messages
  console.log(page.solver.messages); // KPSDK:DONE:...

  // make a modifiable fetch request
  const { route, request } = await page.solver.fetch('/api/kasada-protected-endpoint');

  /// refer to playwright.dev/docs/api/class-request
  console.log(request.headers()); // capture the headers of that request, including x-kpsdk-*
  /// refer to playwright.dev/docs/api/class-route
  await route.abort(); // abort unless same-page client token regeneration should be used

  await page.close();
  await context.close();
  await browser.close();
})();

Configuration

{
  // `kasada` specifies Kasada-protected endpoints in a parsed format
  kasada: [{
    domain: 'some-domain.com',
    method: 'POST',
    path: '/api/kasada-protected-endpoint',
    protocol: 'https:'
  }],

  // `load-complete` indicates whether or not to completely load the target page
  // Kasada-protected endpoint configurations do not need to be specified when this option is enabled
  // when disabled, the target page loads with no content
  'load-complete': false, // default

  // `request-tracing` indicates whether or not to trace Fetch requests initiated by `page.solver.fetch()`
  // when enabled, such requests are assigned a unique identifier that can be accessed through the `X-Trace-Id` header
  // this option should be enabled in scenarios where numerous requests for the same URL might happen simultaneously within the same page instance when calling `page.solver.fetch()`
  'request-tracing': false, // default

  // `sdk-script` specifies the Kasada SDK script to import
  // see available options at playwright.dev/docs/api/class-page#page-add-init-script-option-script
  'sdk-script': {
    url: 'https://some-domain.com/149e9513-01fa-4fb0-aad4-566afd725d1b/2d206a39-8ed7-437e-a3be-862e0f06eea3/p.js'
  },

  // `url` specifies the target page URL which the browser will navigate to
  // this affects the Referer and Origin headers of requests, as well as other origin-dependant properties
  // HTTP redirects are still considered when `load-complete` is disabled
  url: 'https://some-domain.com'
}
