"Nonetheless, a remote code execution (RCE) scenario is possible in Chrome, primarily due to the existence of the WebSQL API.

The five Magellan 2.0 vulnerabilities are tracked as CVE-2019-13734, CVE-2019-13750, CVE-2019-13751, CVE-2019-13752, and CVE-2019-13753. The original Magellan vulnerabilities are tracked as CVE-2018-20346, CVE-2018-20505, and CVE-2018-20506."

Chrome used to be the "gold standard" for security but I have since gone to FireFox with security add ons (NoScript, https everywhere.. ect.)
 
are chrome derivatives (i.e. brave, Opera etc) vulnerable to this also ? I'm assuming so.
