Issue 2171: Security:Well am not sure how severe it is or if it is serious  
at all...
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=2171

Comment #1 by [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
ASCII only defines characters between 0 and 127... you are taking an int  
(which in
this case will get a value between 0 and RAND_MAX (probably 2 billion?),  
see if it is
between 100 and 1000, and then assign it to a char (which can only be  
between 0 and
255, so it will wrap around and essentially you're just generating a random  
character
between 0 and 255, e.g. just random characters).

So you're basically just starting Chrome with a random argument of totally  
random
characters. If those include spaces, the things between the spaces will be  
treated as
different websites you want to start chrome with.

This is not a bug.
