Issue 2877: Advisory - Google Chrome Window Object Suppressing Denial of Service http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=2877
Comment #21 by [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Apparently I wasn't entirely clear. Let me try to explain again: 1) THIS IS NOT A SECURITY ISSUE. For this to be a security issue, a users must be at risk of something. There is no "risk" other than that a user may browse to a website that then closes the current tab. If this was the only tab open, Google Chrome will close. A user may experience this as annoying, but he/she can just open a new tab or restart Google Chrome and continue browsing. Google Chrome is not "killed" - the application closes cleanly when the last tab is closed. 2) THIS IS NOT HIGH SEVERITY. It is unlikely that a significant number of users is affected by this and triggering the bug has a very small impact. 3) THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. It was publicly reported on September 5th to WebKit (bug 20661) and Chromium (bug 1447) by me. https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20661 http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1447 Issue attribute updates: Labels: -private -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
