Learn about the basics of the Native Client sandbox and its general security-relevant architecture, including PPAPI (the replacement for NPAPI). Discover vulnerabilities found through source code review in the PPAPI interface. Gain insights into a tool that dynamically generates code to fuzz the Native Client PPAPI interfaces based on IDL (Interface Description Language) files from the Chrome source tree. Understand how Native Client enables various applications, from games to PDF readers, to run securely within the browser environment.
