Chrome needs to be rewritten in Rust asap
- z3phyr 2y agoMalwares are going to be written in rust; What difference does it make? Also Its not memory based vulnerability but policy based vulnerability.
- echoangle 2y agoBut at least the vulnerability would be blazingly fast
- gsck 2y agoNo it doesn't? This has nothing to do with memory safety. Its a logical error, which Rust physically cannot prevent.

- kernal 2y agoThis had nothing to do with Chrome, but rather Chromium. >Considering that I'm using plain Chromium and not the branded Google Chrome, the channel will always be Channel::UNKNOWN. This also means that, unfortunately, the bug will not work on stable builds of Google Chrome since the release channel is set to the proper value there.
