Hack attack: All your browser bases belong to us

The good news for Microsoft: Apple Safari sucks even harder. Good old . It took him about two minutes to do the same thing to Safari last year, and nine hours for another security researcher the year before.

Here's something sure to send the Apple fanboyz into spasms. In an interview with ZDNet's Ryan Naraine, ....

Safari on the Mac is easier to exploit. The things that Windows do to make it harder (for an exploit to work), Macs don't do. Hacking into Macs is so much easier. You don't have to jump through hoops and deal with all the anti-exploit mitigations you'd find in Windows. It's more about the operating system than the (target) program. Firefox on Mac is pretty easy too. The underlying OS doesn't have anti-exploit stuff built into it.

The whining shall commence in three... two... one...
