No integrated flash player, yet PPAPI plugins supported.What makes Chromium different from the well known Google Chrome? One of the main characteristics of Chromium is that it presents a minimal user interface in order to be light and fast.Īlthough Chromium appeared with the first version in 2008, we had to wait until 4 June 2009 in order to use it also on Mac OS and Linux systems. Google’s intention, with the creation of Chromium, was to provide a window manager that works with sheets or as a web shell. The adjective “Free” implies that it is license-free, which also means it doesn’t have some functions that are provided in the corresponding closed version.įor the most curious ones, the name comes from the homonym metal.
In 2008 Chromium, a free web browser, was born thanks to Google, its creator. When the same symlink file is uploaded back to the website as part of the infection chain – e.g., a crypto wallet service that prompts users to upload their recovery keys – the vulnerability could be exploited to access the actual file storing the key phrase by traversing the symbolic link.Increasingly more people, instead of choosing the most well-known web browsers like Safari, Mozilla and Chrome, prefer to opt for free-license alternatives. In a hypothetical attack, a threat actor could trick a victim into visiting a bogus website and downloading a ZIP archive file containing a symlink to a valuable file or folder on the computer, such as wallet keys and credentials. Imperva's analysis of Chrome's file handling mechanism (and by extension Chromium) found that when a user directly dragged and dropped a folder onto a file input element, the browser resolved all the symlinks recursively without presenting any warning. Dubbed SymStealer, the vulnerability, at its core, relates to a type of weakness known as symbolic link (aka symlink) following, which occurs when an attacker abuses the feature to bypass the file system restrictions of a program to operate on unauthorized files.
