Researchers at Xbow USA spent six days developing a Chrome exploit chain that first escaped the sandbox hosting the V8 JavaScript engine, then escaped Chrome's operating system process sandbox, allowing a Windows application to be launched from within a malicious webpage; Google has fixed the relevant flaws. They chose OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol to search Chrome source code, validate ideas, and build a proof of concept, while strategy formulation, search direction, and result verification remained the responsibility of the researchers. The AI compute cost $40,000, and they received a $250,000 bug bounty from Google, the first under the new 2026 rules.
