Hello Bugtraq!

I want to warn you about Denial of Service vulnerability in Google Chrome.

This vulnerability I found already at 26.12.2008. Attack belongs to type of blocking DoS and DoS via resources consumption (http://websecurity.com.ua/2550/).

DoS:

With the first exploit Chrome blocks. With the second exploit Chrome blocks, at that consumes CPU resources.

Vulnerable version is Google Chrome 1.0.154.48 and previous versions (and potentially next versions too).

I mentioned about this vulnerability at my site (http://websecurity.com.ua/3435/).
