Mr. Mustache,

There is a missing "s" on the end of my last name.

Yours truly,

Jason "Bench Press" Starks

Mr. Stark,

Adhering to the tradition of my fathers, I do not sport any facial
hair and take offense to your comment, and since you're obviously
lacking basic observational skills I highly doubt you're even as
talented as my Cadburys, at anything.

Mr. Mustache, it is obvious that I have more talent than a box of
chocolates, and that you envy the sadistic nature of your fellow
trolls on
this list. Point blank.

Dear Valdis,

I have been able to reproduce a similar situation using Firefox
under MacOSX, using different websites and a significantly
larger
number of tabs.  Do you think these issues might be related or
are
they operating system specific?  What model of CPU were you
testing
this issue under?

Thanks,

I would like to point out that I have been able to create a
"hung"
state in the Firefox browser by opening 30 simultaneous tabs
pointed
at http://www.welcometointernet.org/lawnmower/ and adding a
31st
tab
viewing http://www.hotrussianbrides.com.

Also, I am not amused.


Your humble servant,

Chris Evans to Thierry Zoller:

Example
If a chrome tab can be crashed arbritarely (remotely) it
is
a
DoS attack
but with ridiculy low impact to the end-user as it only
crashes the tab
it was subjected to, and not the whole browser or
operation
system.
But the fact remains that this was the impact of a DoS
condition,
the tab crashes arbritarily.

Eh? If you visit www.evil.com and your tab crashes, that's
no
different from www.evil.com closing its own tab with
Javascript.

But what if www.evil.com has run an injection attack of some
kind
(SQL,
XSS in blog comments, etc, etc) against www.stupid.com?

Visitors to stupid.com then suffer a DoS...

Yes, stupid.com should run their site better, fix their
myriad
XSS
holes,
etc, etc.

But this is the Internet, so this "software flaw" can be
leveraged
as
security vulnerability.

I'm with Thierry on this...


Regards,

Nick FitzGerald
