Quick Summery : Bug allows infected webpage to remove access to X button on both page tab and the chrome browser X as well by replacing it with the function of going fullscreen on the browser, thus making it impossible to exit the infected page or close it. I was only able to close chrome via cntrl + alt + delete and ending the process. I was using incognito mode.



While on Chrome, and visiting https://www.coindesk.com/death-ico-4-2018-predictions/?utm_content=buffer62aaa&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer

suddenly my browser in the same window went to a different page with a red background ( typical scam type of website ). While I typically would immediately exit chrome ( I was browsing incognito ) to avoid clicking anything, the bug I experierenced was causing the page to go full screen when clicking the X button to exit the page. It did not matter if I used the X on the tab itself or the X on the entire chrome application to exit, both resulted in going into fullscreen mode of the infected webpage. I have no viruses on my computer, I even did multiple scans following the event to confirm it was a chrome issue.
