5. FlareSolverr Specific Diagnostics

Asset Starvation

Detection approach

Resource starvation consistent with FlareSolverr detected. FlareSolverr uses CDP Network.setBlockedURLs to block PNG/JPG/CSS/WOFF assets for speed. A real browser loads at least some images and stylesheets.

How this helps detect bots

This signal is assessed with other independent session, browser, and network evidence. A single anomaly is a lead, not a verdict; corroborating anomalies make automated traffic more likely.

Legitimate traffic to consider

Users on low-bandwidth networks or using text-only browsers (e.g. Lynx).
