iOS browsers and anything that handle images are just frontends of apple own engines.
You can't make your own image parser on ios.
>>54230299
All it did was crash chrome
>>54230299
please note the lack of babies in this thread defending apple
i'd just like to bump this post, i fucking dare you to defend your $1200 purchase when it can be killed with a fucking image
>>54230299
Kek, works fine in IE!
>>54231516
hey linuxfags justify your installation that could be killed with any of the 2 commandssudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-rootsudo chmod -Rf / 000

That's because their applel toy froze up and now they're at their basement steve jobs shrine praying for his ghost to banish the evil beachball.

doesn't that work on OSX too?
Lol it crashed safari
More like ayyfone am I right
No crashes on safari, a page reload is what I get.
iPhone 6s, iOS 9.2.1
Also, note that's it's fixed
>>54231561
Justify it?
Sure, to run those I would need to both open a terminal, manually enter those commands, press enter, and enter a fucking password
You have to click an image, or even a webpage with the image embedded
Truly a meme os

* The Mac platform has evolved from 68K to PPC to Intel.
* Mac OS classic allowed low level OS extensions that could crash the entire OS. OS X is most definitely NOT Mac OS classic. (It's fucking UNIX NextStep.)
* Extensions were basically implemented as CPU traps, instruction op codes that m68k didn't use. Executing one would trigger a low level handler that branched to your code. As you can imagine it would be easy to fuck up the entire memory space and crash the whole computer with no survivors via this mechanism, regardless of hardware.
Now as to the PNG OP posted about...haven't tested it, but if it crashes Safari, big deal? Apple will fix the bug. You can probably find the same bug in Chrome. It's common to crash a browser with a bug in some low level data parser.
At least on OS X you can't use the crash to inject code with admin rights, and TRIGGER the crash simply by sending an email regardless of whether or not it's viewed (anyone remember the famous Windows JPEG exploit?)

and the point where you show that this behaviour is incongruous with the tech community at large is...?
thanks OP, reported to apple so they can fix it

It was reported four months ago you illiterate
Can ios users confirm if they are crashing upon viewing the thread?
>>54234691
No, because they can't open it without crashing.
:^)
>>54234691
Well once they've loaded the image it will remain on Safari, so it would crash each time you try to use Safari. Good to have a large reduction of Macfags on /g/, shitposting has drastically dropped.

We had a wireless network with the SSID as the string running on a 10$ wireless router in the library on the first day of uni.
I heard of at least four phones being affected.
