Is there any record of web-based attacks like this?



Not AFAIK. There are contrived PoCs of browser based Specter exploits, but no practical examples have been discovered.


Browser vendors have been pretty quick to add mitigations, disable attack surface, etc. Someone comes up with a new way to attack systems via JS, but vendors are all headed in a safer direction.
