I tried decrypting my password on the search page using a malicious search payload, but it didn't work. Somehow, the cookies contain hidden characters on the search page causing the getCookie method to fail. The getCookie method tries to trim whitespaces from cookie values. In the images below you can see .charAt(0) returns a strange string when executed on the search page.

Note that the author doesn't seem to have checked what the sandbox escape itself does: it redefines the charAt function to be Array.join, so of course it produces garbage!
