> JavaScript did deliver its promise of unbreakable sandbox

Aren't its VM implementations routinely exploited? Ranging from "mere" security feature exploits, such as popunders, all the way to full on proper VM escapes?

Like even in current day, JS is ran interpreted on a number of platforms, because JIT compiling is not trustworthy enough. And I'm pretty sure the interpreters are no immune either.
