I'm on a macbook pro, Google Chrome 147.0.7727.56. Clicking the Vercel logo at the top left of the page hard crashes my Chrome app. Like, immediate crash. What an interesting bug.

I'm running 147.0.7727.57 and this doesn't happen. Macbook Air M5. VERY interesting.

Huh, curiously; I'm on Arch Linux, crash happens in Google Chrome (147.0.7727.101) for me too, but not in Firefox (149.0.2) nor even in Chromium (147.0.7727.101). I find it fun we're all reading a story how Vercel likely is compromised somehow, and managed to reproduce a crash on their webpage, so now we all give it a try. Surely could never backfire :)

  Works in Safari too. Sounds like a Google Chrome thing.

    A crash can mean corrupt file exploiting bug and executing code…

  Following since I just reproduced the crash on my own system (Chrome on Ubuntu)

    I hope you run your browser in a sandbox because you might be compromised now.

Same with Chrome on Windows 11. I opened the vercel home page using the url once after which it stopped crashing when clicking on the logo.

MBP - M4 Max - Chrome 146.0.7680.178. No crash. Now I don't want to click that "Finish update" button.

  if it does so happen that the crash originates from a browser exploit, you should expect to be more at risk due to the absence of a crash on an older version, not less

Reminds me of circa 2021 Chromium bug where opening the dropdown menu on GitHub would crash the entire system on Linux. At some point, it got fixed.

Sadly I coudn't make Chrome crash here. Would be fun. Chrome Version 147.0.7727.101 (Official Build) (64-bit). Windows 11 Pro.

Same thing here, 147.0.7727.101, M3 Macbook Air. Immediate crash of all open profile windows, so not even a tab-level crash.
