WARNING A german Security Site has discovered a vulnerability in the DNS structure on Safari and Chrome browsers on Apple OS X, iOS, and also Chrome on Android. Google has patched Chrome so download a new version. Apple has yet to fix the vulnerability. The proof-of-concept is extremely simple
it uses JavaScript to load up a website (dailymail), every 10 micro-seconds, which is not enough time for the website to begin loading. So its displaying that website address, but hasnt actually loaded it yet. Meanwhile, its on a different website, which could have active malware.
As a quick fix, go to Safari Menu, Preferences, Security, uncheck Webcontent: Enable JavaScript. Problem Solved! However, you may not be able to use some sites which require JavaScript to operate. PING!
