While it might assuage some kneejerk skepticism like this, I don't think they're obligated to omit that Chrome has mitigations in place when disclosing a vulnerability.
- eganist 10y agoYou're absolutely right. I'd rather have preferred a few different responses, such as including multiple mitigating strategies, even if they're user actions such as browsing only trusted sites until a patch is released. That said, even if the wording was "Browsers such as Chrome which block win32k.sys system calls using the Win32k lockdown mitigation on Windows 10 prevent exploitation of this sandbox escape vulnerability," I would've given them a partial pass.
