"Could this have anything to do with VUPEN's recent Chrome exploit?"

Is this going to be the standard post for every Chrome fix from this point forward? The only people who we know for sure would know ain't talking. ;)

I get your point. However, this isn't a fix, it is, according to the article, a volunerability that allows "remote execution of malicious code". People who know WebGL better than I do would probably know more about what specific exploits it facilitates.

That's pretty much every attack - the holy grail of malicious code.
