Brash Exploit Crashes Chromium Browsers via Title API

⚠️ Security researcher Jose Pino disclosed "Brash", a severe flaw in the Blink rendering engine that can crash many Chromium-based browsers within 15–60 seconds via a single malicious URL. The root cause is missing rate limiting on the document.title API, enabling attackers to inject millions of DOM mutations per second and saturate the browser UI thread. Pino describes a three-phase technique — hash generation, burst injection, and UI-thread saturation — and warns the code can be time-triggered to act like a logic bomb. Affected products include Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, Arc, Dia, and some AI browser interfaces; Firefox and Safari are not vulnerable.
