Sergey Glazunov has just surpassed Warren Buffett in the list of wealthy people. Congratulations.
What the hell Sergey Glazunov!!! 60 000 bucks!?! How is it possible he`s not in Google Chrome dev team?
Congrats ching!
Even more impressive is how fast Google fixed this. These are the bugs Glazunov exposed just a day or two ago in the Pwn2Own contest!
Sergey is always doing great thing s for the Chrome browser. It makes me think sometimes that he somehow engineers the bug then fixes it to claim his paycheck. But I know that not possible. He's just damned good at what he does!
Congrats Sergey!
yes, awesome, may google chrome will not frequently crashes i hope, and more hope... :-)
Congratulations Sergey, and congratulations / thanks to the Google security/dev team fixing this so fast pushing out an update.
I'd like to see that kind of fix timeline in more companies. I wonder though how you managed to get through the quality boards that fast ;-).
More than a great achievement for the hacker in question, it's a major win for the Chrome eco-system.
A major strength that Google acknowledges flaws and fixes them instead of trying to hide them as some other browser vendors.
Wow congrats I've been using Chrome since version 3 and i count be more happy to see how it turned out. This browser blows away all compition in my opinion.
Thank Sergey for finding the exploit and Chrome Team for pushing out an update so fast :)
Nither the old build old_chrome.exe is working, nor chrome.exe is working. What do I do?
I am using chrome 17.0.963.78 on centos 6.2 and I still face the issue of shockwave flash crash in chrome .....
