A simple HTML tag will crash 64-bit Windows 7 • The Register:

Strange, strange.
A simple HTML tag will crash 64-bit Windows 7 • The Register:
An unpatched critical flaw in 64-bit Windows 7 leaves computers vulnerable to a full 'blue screen of death' system crash.What weird architecture is this, that allows a usermode application (browser) to crash the kernel?

the simple HTML script, when opened in Apple's Safari web browser, quickly leads to the kernel triggering a page fault in an unmapped area of memory, which halts the machine at a blue screen of death.
And this is through Safara (not Internet Explorer, which I'd understand to be more closely tied to the kernel)
Strange, strange.
