Last week, security company announced triumphantly VUPEN have found a serious vulnerability in the role sandboxing (isolation of processes) Chrome browser. Google categorically denies the information.In March 2010, Google announced a rewards program for detection of vulnerabilities in Chrome and Chromium. This standing offer has interested many hackers and computer security companies, especially because Chrome has proved impenetrable, especially when compared with competing browsers, Internet Explorer, Safari and Firefox, among others.
On 10 May, the company said VUPEN have detected a serious vulnerability in the sandbox of Chrome, which according to its description could be used to destroy all the security features of the browser. The alleged vulnerability was demonstrated in a video, but Google could not initially confirm or deny the report because they did not get the technical details of VUPEN.
However, several developers of Google studied the subject for its own account and categorically rejected that the vulnerability is based in Chrome itself. Via Twitter, the programmer Tavis Ormandy attributed the problem to a bug in flash, but not before mentioning that “As usual, security journalists do not bother to check facts. VUPEN not understand how that works sandboxing Chrome. “
Meanwhile, the security expert Dan Kaminsky, who is not connected or Google or VUPEN, has posted on his blog a post titled
VUPEN versus Google: Both are right (almost), which gives reason to VUPEN noting that Google has failed to penetrate the basic sandbox Chrome. Instead, he says, VUPEN has taken a detour around the sandbox attacking the sandbox where Google runs its special version of Flash Player. This last item would be much less secure than primary sandbox, said the expert. Kaminsky notes that Google itself said during the recent Google I / O, that this element is a “partial sandboxing.”However, Kaminski differs from Google’s efforts to disqualify VUPEN, and if the company has violated or not the browser Chrome. Kaminsky says Google, the distributed Flash Player with Chrome, must assume full responsibility, because Flash is equivalent to other third-party solutions are incorporated into the browser, such as WebKit, SQLite and WebM. “It is quite normal to take responsibility for imported libraries,” writes Kaminsky.
Image: The literal translation of sandbox is “sandbox”, but in this case refers to the isolation of processes in the browser, just for security purposes.
