Is it possible to get mac address through Chrome extension?

I want my extension to be able to send the physical MAC address of the user to the server.

Are there any to get the client address in the Chrome extension?

With the extension, this is definitely not possible.

Closest you can get IP addresses and all network interfaces using the chrome.system.network API available for Chrome apps - but that doesn't include the MAC address starting with Chrome 33.

We solved the problem with an external command ( .cmd on windows, .sh on linux), which we call through our own message API. An external script simply displays the current MAC address.
