The annual Pwn2Own hacking competition is a nightmare for various browsers, especially the Internet Explorer. Chrome was not so lucky this year until the end of previous years, and the competition was won at the beginning.

The Vupen team used a security vulnerability to break Chrome within five minutes of the start of the game. They will receive a reward of at least $6000, some of which are Google's pockets.

Of course, the security vulnerability that the Vupen team cracked Chrome has not been announced, but it is known that it is a zero-day vulnerability and has avoided Google sandbox and ran code. I believe that Google will soon fix this vulnerability.
