Apparently not as big an issue as has been reported, as it is being addressed (or has at least been partially):

WebGL group responds to browser security flaw claim - Digital Lifestyle - Macworld UK

Also Safari should be included in that list of browsers, and there are no reported cases of WebGL having been exploited in a DDOS attack or other security hack.

Maybe we should see what the minds at pown to own come up with against the browsers next year?

Safari should be included, however I don't think webgl is enabled by default. There are no reported cases. It's just an FYI. It's good to know security issues that goes down to the kernel level.
