for test all of this need a instaled web server,
and some patience XDD

tesst 1
#############
Create a new html document and write in:
<html><body onload='close()'></body></html>
save it as test1.html in c:\test\ for testing.
1.1 - Open google Chrome and open it with file handler like
file:///c:/test/test1.html
Chrome does not close the window and nothing apears...
1.2 - Open The file in a trust intranet zone via
htttp://localhost/test/test1.html or via ip
http://192.168.1.100/test/test1.html
Chrome does not close the window and nothing apears...
1.3 - Open hard disk and select c:\test\test1.html rigth
click and open with Google Chrome.
Chrome open and close auth.
if we change to other even like onblur ,with onfocus event
it´s interesting because if we try to use inspector to view
the source code, we click in body tag , and we close inspector
the tab is close too,this only aparently afects,wen we open the
html document with test mode 1.3
so this issue aparently can´t exploit in a remote scenario.

conclusion
##############
This issue can be a vulnerability , and this can be used for
example to built malwares that can be tramp the browser in a
determinate location and if the user try to look the code
(onfocus)or try to navigate to other site (test2.html)or other
event,the window can close without interaction,them if a
malware or a malicious web page or a browser hijacker can
load as a default web page and them this can be a
Denial Of Service Condition
