Too much "1337 h4x0r" stuff.
It's public knowledge (or even open source code) what browsers expose, and system logs or CPU serial numbers are certainly not part of that.
- zucksablackhat 8y agoif you give permission from an admin login, it is trivial to take carte blanche of a machine, its trivial to convince someone to give you full access
- rbinv 8y agoYou're implying that Facebook is - widely - using unknown privilege escalation exploits in browsers for tracking purposes? That's absurd.
- ohWARisme 8y agoof course the practice is absurd, but that doesnt make it non existent. a non trivial number of average users run around the web in an administrative account, there is no escalation required when a script is already executed with admin, or even root permissions. The rest is academic.
