Chrome136 emulation missing HTTP/2 setting causing Akamai detection #471

Hi! Love rnet's protocol-level emulation approach! I found one issue with the Chrome136 profile.

The Issue

Real Chrome 136 sends 5 HTTP/2 SETTINGS during connection:

HEADER_TABLE_SIZE = 65536
ENABLE_PUSH = 0
INITIAL_WINDOW_SIZE = 6291456
MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE = 262144
UNKNOWN_SETTING_31386 = 3814263365  ← Missing in rnet

rnet Chrome136 only sends the first 4. This causes different HTTP/2 Akamai fingerprint hashes:

• Real browser: bad541c167b7b74e8b573127ea385fcb
• rnet: 52d84b11737d980aef856699f885ca86

Impact

Akamai-protected sites can detect this instantly since they fingerprint the HTTP/2 SETTINGS frame.

Test Code

import rnet
from datetime import timedelta

client = rnet.blocking.Client(emulation=rnet.Emulation.Chrome136)
response = client.get('https://tls.peet.ws/api/all', timeout=timedelta(seconds=30))
data = response.json()

print(data['http2']['akamai_fingerprint'])
# Missing the :3814263365 part that real Chrome has

Environment

• rnet: 3.0.0rc16
• Python: 3.13

Note

Your TLS fingerprint is spot-on! Just this one HTTP/2 setting needs to be added. This setting appeared in Chrome 130+ and is used by Akamai for bot detection.

Happy to provide more test data if needed. Thanks for the awesome library!
