VOW!! CHROME "HACKED"

 Pwn2Own is an annual computer hacking contest held in March at Vancouver,Canada.Security professionals try and find vulnerabilities in software that were previously unknown(called zero-day attacks and exploits) and gain control over the target system.Winners win a cash prize(in the thousands of dollars).
So as usual this year too this hacking competition was held and surprisingly Google chrome has been hacked.
Till date Google Chrome was the only web browser which was not hacked(three years) but Firefox,Microsoft Explorer,safari had been hacked back.
    But the latest news is that Google Chrome has been finally HACKED.Google had announced before that they will be rewarding 1$ Million if Chrome is Hacked.Vupen Security and Sergey Glazunov manged to penetrate Google chrome's security defences at Pwn2Own.Now Google is in a really alerted state.
