- nupark 16y agoChrome can not sandbox all plugins without some effort. Only recently did they add support for sandboxing Flash to the stable Chrome release, and even then, only on Windows: http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2011/03/chrome-stable-release.html http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2011/03/chrome-stab...
- FooBarWidget 16y agoWhere can I get accurate information on how sandboxing works on OS X, what it exactly does, what its limits are, and which vulnerabilities it does and doesn't protect against?
- pharrington 16y agoA plugin exploit is another vector through which one can attack the sandbox.
