Spyjax is looking to jack you up like a California mortgage refinance. From what I’m reading, there seems to be a major flaw in browsers if this works like it says it does.
Now we all know that browsers are not 100% secure. Look at how many patches of Internet Explorer 6 were released before they finally just dumped out version 7. Now I personally use Firefox, and I was auto upgraded a few days back to version 2.0.0.4. I have never been an IE fan at all. There are some places that still insist that IE is used. I think that is quite the sham. Not a shame, a sham just as I said.
Why should such places force you to use a browser that has already been exploited a half dozen times at least in a week’s period before? Browsers could just turn off javascripting all together, but then we may as well text browse via Lynx at that point. I’m glad on one hand that Spyjax has shown a major exploit, but on the other hand it makes you think.
Technically Speaking, Spyjax probably is not the only exploit out there right now.
