Superb exploit and props to Google for a really sensible way of involving and rewarding people for testing their security.

Interesting the first prize winner’s name is Sergey too. Congrats.

Definitely the right way to go.

1 exploit in 4 yrs is quite a decent record, me thinks. Even neurotic security-obsessed OpenBSD devs would nod their head in acknowledgment.

Glad to see Chrome taking the right steps in security. This is the only way to make it safer by having someone from the outside attempt to hack your products and then fix what they find.

Kudos to Mr. Glazunov. $60k is a nice bounty and the accomplishment itself is an impressive addition to any software security-related resume. Here’s hoping researchers like him stick to the white-hat industry.

Google has the right idea on this one, don’t try and claim the browser can’t be hacked rather encourage people to try and hack it and then fix those exploits.
