The title is so misleading its just funny.
I could propose to offer 1000 BILLIONS to anyone who exploit chrome and give $1 per exploit too (yeah im not Google so it's $1 for me).
I think Google is going that because security companies request such amounts for exploits before Pwn2Own to Google so that Google doesn't look bad.
And Google didn't take VUPEN's offer on all bugs, so VUPEN said they're going to go to Pwn2Own and break Chrome with their known exploits. So Google wants to come out as the good guy.
Yay for politics.
- dmoy 15y agoSorry I can't really parse what you wrote. $20000~$60000 is not $1. The article explicitly states that they're withdrawing from Pwn2Own because of a new disclosure policy on exploits. Am I missing something? The last I heard about VUPEN & chrome at pwn2own was like a year ago, and they weren't going to tell details on the exploits to anyone but the government. Though I always assumed that latter part was conspiracy theory, didn't think much of it...
