Updates playwright from 1.51.0 to 1.56.1

Release notes

Sourced from playwright's releases.

v1.56.1

Highlights

#37871 chore: allow local-network-access permission in chromium #37891 fix(agents): remove workspaceFolder ref from vscode mcp #37759 chore: rename agents to test agents #37757 chore(mcp): fallback to cwd when resolving test config

Browser Versions

  • Chromium 141.0.7390.37
  • Mozilla Firefox 142.0.1
  • WebKit 26.0

v1.56.0

Playwright Agents

Introducing Playwright Agents, three custom agent definitions designed to guide LLMs through the core process of building a Playwright test:

  • 🎭 planner explores the app and produces a Markdown test plan
  • 🎭 generator transforms the Markdown plan into the Playwright Test files
  • 🎭 healer executes the test suite and automatically repairs failing tests

Run npx playwright init-agents with your client of choice to generate the latest agent definitions:

# Generate agent files for each agentic loop
# Visual Studio Code
npx playwright init-agents --loop=vscode
# Claude Code
npx playwright init-agents --loop=claude
# opencode
npx playwright init-agents --loop=opencode

[!NOTE] VS Code v1.105 (currently on the VS Code Insiders channel) is needed for the agentic experience in VS Code. It will become stable shortly, we are a bit ahead of times with this functionality!

playwright@1.56.1 has Network access.

Module: globalThis["fetch"]

Location: Package overview

From: package-lock.jsonnpm/playwright@1.56.1

ℹ Read more on: This package | This alert | What is network access?

Next steps: Take a moment to review the security alert above. Review the linked package source code to understand the potential risk. Ensure the package is not malicious before proceeding. If you're unsure how to proceed, reach out to your security team or ask the Socket team for help at support@socket.dev.

Suggestion: Packages should remove all network access that is functionally unnecessary. Consumers should audit network access to ensure legitimate use.

Mark the package as acceptable risk. To ignore this alert only in this pull request, reply with the comment @SocketSecurity ignore npm/playwright@1.56.1. You can also ignore all packages with @SocketSecurity ignore-all. To ignore an alert for all future pull requests, use Socket's Dashboard to change the triage state of this alert.

Warn Low
playwright-core@1.56.1 is a AI-detected potential code anomaly.

Notes: The code appears to be a legitimate component of a Playwright-like automation framework, focusing on page bindings, event-driven dispatch, and frame/viewport/evaluation orchestration. There is no immediate malware indication, but the binding/dispatch mechanism introduces a moderate security risk contingent on the trustworthiness of bindings and payloads. Primary recommendations: enforce strict binding registration controls, validate all payloads, sandbox binding executions, and minimize/log-filter any sensitive data in logs. Overall risk is moderate with targeted improvements needed around payload trust boundaries.

If you're unsure how to proceed, reach out to your security team or ask the Socket team for help at support@socket.dev.

Suggestion: An AI system found a low-risk anomaly in this package. It may still be fine to use, but you should check that it is safe before proceeding.

Warn Low
playwright@1.56.1 is a AI-detected potential code anomaly.

Notes: The fragment implements a legitimate Playwright MCP bridge with two-way WebSocket signaling and an external browser extension bridge. No explicit malware detected. Main security considerations are token handling and logging exposure, as well as safe spawning of external processes. Mitigations include restricting token exposure, sanitizing logs, and validating external process provenance and sandboxing. Overall, moderate risk due to sensitive data in URLs/logs and external process control, but no active malicious behavior identified.

Warn Low
playwright@1.56.1 is a AI-detected potential code anomaly.

Notes: The analyzed code implements a standard factory pattern to create a Playwright-based extension context using a CDP relay. There is no clear evidence of malicious activity, data exfiltration, hardcoded secrets, or backdoors within this fragment. The primary security considerations relate to the proper securing of the local HTTP/CDP relay and ensuring abort handling does not leak sensitive data via logs. Overall, this appears to be legitimate infrastructure for automated browser extension contexts rather than malware.
