Be fair. Exceptional claims require exceptional evidence. They offer no evidence at all. Scepticism is healthy.

Browser bugs are found in every single browser on every single platform. They're reported for free, traded privately, sold privately, given to the vendor for a bounty, used to spread malware, discovered in American corporations, discovered in Iranian corporations, and more. There is nothing exceptional here. This is business as usual. It's non-trivial, but far from exceptional.
A security bug in a web browser on windows may not happen everyday, but I've heard more extraordinary things.
