I wonder if it has something to do with the value 0. The %30 represents a url encoded 0 character. Perhaps it reads it as a null, which in turn would trigger a null value --- when it actually wanted a 0 value, so in summary: Basically a nullbyte DoS. The only issue, it crashes just a single tab in my browser. It would be cooler if it crashed the whole browser, still pretty damn awesome though. ;)

Thanks for sharing man, good work.

Just give this a click, I did some magic. ;)
You might have to wiggle your mouse a little.
It actually does seem to fuck up tabs in a weird way --- damn, lol. :eek:

Keep an eye on the processor usage, it goes a bit spastic when you click the link. I'm wondering if something more could be accomplished using this. Perhaps attempting to write something into the URL for example --- get it to run. o_O

Someone should look into this a little more, if this is vulnerable in any way to execution --- you could literally send someone a link to a website and infect people in Chrome and I'm sure other browsers. This is definitely a problem developers probably overlooked, scary.
