    back in 2022 i found a bug that would let me, with no user interaction, turn any chromium-based browser into a permanent js botnet member

    in edge, you wouldn't even notice anything out-of-place, and would stay connected to the c2 even after closing the browser

    today, almost 4 years later, the bug is finally public:

      @rebane2001 Damn you get some really long running bugs don't you?

      Out of curiosity whats the longest you've had to wait for one like that?

      Also got to love the org that famously gives people 90 days to fix things taking 1460 days 😛

                @rebane2001 Hold a really cool presentation about it? There's a conference in Stockholm (SE) in September who pays their speakers, CFP is open: https://event.sec-t.org/sec-t-2026/cfp

                        even worse, edge no longer even makes the download menu pop up, so it's completely silent js rce that keeps running even after you close the browser !!

                        all from just visiting a single website once !!

                            @rebane2001 would the service worker process stay around even without the main browser process with edge?

                                        back in 2022 i found a bug that would let me, with no user interaction, turn any chromium-based browser into a permanent js botnet member

                                        in edge, you wouldn't even notice anything out-of-place, and would stay connected to the c2 even after closing the browser

                                        today, almost 4 years later, the bug is finally public:

                                        @rebane2001@infosec.exchange Oh no the second I saw the download bit I knew it's gotta be content-disposition

                                          @4censord works for me on a fresh session, might have to wait for it to load?

                                          @rebane2001 hmm, nothing is loading for me, I've waited around 30s
                                          There is also no loading indicator.
                                          I'm using a similar browser as well, its also Firefox klar
