I can wipe a Chromebook I don't own.

Reported by mh...@mozilla.com, Nov 30 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0
Platform: ASUS Chromebook Flip C302CA

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Log into friend's Chromebook with my own Google Apps account
2. Gain access!
3. Profit?

What is the expected behavior?
Logging into a stranger's computer shouldn't work, should it?

What went wrong?
I was surprised that after logging into a friend's chromebook with my personal GA account - mhoye@bespokeio.com - that I had full regular user access, including permission to factory-wipe the machine. 

The owner of the device didn't get a notification that someone else had accessed their device, or wiped it, though I did get a login notification.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: ChromeOS  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: 

My apologies if this is by design. It just seemed really weird.

By design. The owner account or remote management can restrict things in some ways, but if you have physical access to the machine we generally assume a wipe is possible.
