This repository contains a full exploit for CVE-2016-6754 (BadKernel), a vulnerability in the V8 JavaScript engine used in Chrome and Android WebView. The exploit is implemented as a single HTML file ('exploit.html') containing a large JavaScript payload. The code leverages advanced JavaScript features and V8 internals to achieve arbitrary read/write primitives, manipulate ArrayBuffers, and ultimately inject and execute native shellcode in memory. The exploit demonstrates a full browser-based attack chain, culminating in arbitrary code execution. There are no hardcoded network endpoints or external resources; the exploit is self-contained and operates entirely within the browser context. The README provides a brief description and references a security conference presentation. The repository is a technical proof-of-concept for browser exploitation research.
