>The webassembly exploit part of the chain bums me out (I was always afraid of stuff like this when I was working on the design for it) but it's pretty uninteresting, really. The simple sort of bug you get when you insist on writing stuff in C++.
I really hope people don't think webassembly is the fault for this, this vulnerability is no different from any other memory corruption vulnerability you would find in the js interpreter or the css parser or whatever.
>I've used it on my laptop. Primarily because it has had few vulnerabilities and is very stable.
The OpenBSD propaganda works I see...
Do you really think the tools you use like your web browser, mail client etc, have less vulnerabilities on OpenBSD than on any other BSD or linux distribution, please...
Just look at the Eich story.
