The Huffington Post recently reported it’s much easier to get somebody’s passwords than you think. All you need to do is go into their google chrome settings via chrome://settings/passwords and all your saved passwords will be displayed. Personally, I never have Chrome save my passwords anyway since I only have one easy to remember password (pissparty69) but this could spell trouble for people who save sensitive passwords on chrome and let people they don’t completely trust use their computer.



This is just one of the many security flaws that have popped up for Chrome over the years. Here’s just a few of the flaws that it’s had in the past that google has since fixed.






Pressing alt+f7 with browser open turned webcam on whenever adult content is playing and sends a link to the streaming video to everybody in your gmail contacts.



Any 16 digit number copied onto clipboard set to default paste.



All twitter DMs sent from verified accounts forwarded to Gawker.



Google+ showed google search history during the two weeks everybody used google+



ctrl+shift+b posts to every social network that you’re logged into that you’re totally searching in incognito mode.



Googling “pressure cooker” would send police to your home to question you (oh wait that actually happened).



When questioned about fixing the flaw, a representative from google rolled his eyes, made a jerking motion with his fist and said that they were going to get right on that because they really feared losing users to Internet Explorer.
