The the browser sandbox is just another sandbox, as we have seen with targeted attacks on Firefox two weeks back.
Why is everybody so insistent on running untrusted code?
- bitwize 7y agoBecause the Web won't work without running untrusted code.
- idle_zealot 7y agoThe Web of hyperlinked documents would still work. But webapps would not be able to run arbitrary code the moment they were navigated to. Perhaps there should be a clear user-visible distinction between an HTML document with some styling and a full-blown application (that happens to use DOM for layout).
