Summary Non-extensibility does not prevent mutating [[Prototype]]

ES5.1 section 8.6.2 states: "In addition, if [[Extensible]] is false the value of the [[Class]] and [[Prototype]] internal properties of the object may not be modified." However, on Safari 5.0.6 through WebKit Nightly 5.0.6 (5533.22.3, r92569), we see: > var x = Object.freeze({}); > var y = {}; > x.__proto__ = y; Object > y.isPrototypeOf(x); true > Object.getPrototypeOf(x) === y; true I'm classifying this as Severity=Major, since it is the only currently known showstopper preventing SES from being able to run securely using a verification-only strategy.
