How do Crossdomain JavaScript exploits work?

This week, i had to deal with a rash of Javascript trojans. I looked into one of them, the scorecard beacon.jsThe code is pretty obfuscated and it makes itself look like a comscore script. This thing is as usual installing a trojan on windows systems.I am really confused by how these exploits work. My understanding was that JavaScript scope could not bubble up beyond the iframe it was placed on. Most of these malware ads seem to do exactly that, and either place a modal on top of your content, or implement a JavaScript redirect to another url.

Safari update question

I saw this on my FB news feed, from someone I don't really know at all (you know how that happens):"Wow!! Once Apple released the update to safari that eliminated all old versions of Flash, my computer runs MUCH smoother now. Damn. Flash really WAS a resource hog."Anyone know anything about this? I'm inclined to believe it was Safari
