i am here to announce we have reached 100% memory safety by ceasing to produce memory at all

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:

Now, I have to admit I'm posting this without trying it myself, as I'm running low on disk space on this machine.

Because the full download is 121GB (174GB unzipped!). There is also a lighter version at 14GB that will download stuff on demand.

Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
