Abstract

Many commercial Websites employ Web browser fingerprinting to track visitors using Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) headers, JavaScript, and other methods. Although a user can disable JavaScript or utilize a prevention tool to avoid being tracked, countermeasures against Web browser fingerprinting using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) have not been established. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a method of fingerprinting that employs only CSS and discuss the effectiveness of our method.
仅使用层叠样式表的Web浏览器指纹识别
许多商业网站使用Web浏览器指纹来使用超文本传输协议(HTTP)标头、JavaScript和其他方法跟踪访问者。尽管用户可以禁用JavaScript或利用预防工具来避免被跟踪,但是还没有建立使用层叠样式表(Cascading Style Sheets, CSS)防止Web浏览器指纹识别的对策。因此,在本文中,我们提出了一种仅使用CSS的指纹识别方法,并讨论了我们方法的有效性。
