Hackers had to use a Samsung Series 5 550 Chromebook running the latest stable version of Chrome OS. Attacks could be directed at any of the software, including drivers and kernels. And although a few partial exploits were discovered, Google promises to have them fixed in no time, not to mention that no one was able to claim any of the grand prizes.
