Google Chrome Browser Hacked Finally


The un-hackable Google Chrome browser has finally Pwned by VUPEN aka Sandbox/ASLR/DEP Bypass. The Pwn2Own challenge commence held every year at the CanSecWest conference and browsers including Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari getting hacked on the first day. But no one yet able to hack the Google Chrome which uses sandbox security which made it very tough to go in.

According to security company VUPEN, "Hi everyone, We are (un)happy to announce that we have officially Pwnd Google Chrome and its sandbox. The exploit shown in this video is one of the most sophisticated codes we have seen and created so far as it bypasses all security features including ASLR/DEP/Sandbox, it is silent (no crash after executing the payload), it relies on undisclosed (0day) vulnerabilities discovered by VUPEN and it works on all Windows systems (32-bit and x64)."

Google uses three types of security measure in Chrome that make it very difficult to exploit. They consist of Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), Data Execution Prevention (DEP), and the most commonly referred to sandbox. The video shows the exploit in action with Google Chrome v11.0.696.65 on Microsoft Windows 7 SP1 (x64). The user is tricked into visiting a specially crafted web page hosting the exploit which will execute various payloads to ultimately download the Calculator from a remote location and launch it outside the sandbox at Medium integrity level.

While Chrome has one of the most secure sandboxes and has always survived the Pwn2Own contest during the last three years, we have now uncovered a reliable way to execute arbitrary code on any installation of Chrome despite its sandbox, ASLR and DEP. This code and the technical details of the underlying vulnerabilities will not be publicly disclosed. They are shared exclusively with our Government customers as part of our vulnerability research services.
