Safari, IE hacked first at Pwn2Own

Apple’s Safari and Microsoft’s IE both fell to the first hackers who tried their luck on the browsers at Wednesday’s opening day of Pwn2Own. The hacking challenge kicked off at 3:30 p.m. PT, slightly later than scheduled, at the CanSecWest security conference. A team from the French security company Vupen walked off with $15,000 and a new MacBook Air after exploiting an unpatched vulnerability in Safari. Earlier today, Apple updated Safarito version 5.0.4, fixing 62 vulnerabilities.”]
