What the heck is going on over at Google’s Chrome Dome (which is what I assume they call the place where they have all the Chrome software developers)? Just four days after we told you about the latest Chrome zero-day security exploit, there’s another one that needs yet another critical update to the browser. That’s the sixth one so far in 2024.
Once again Google is recommending that users immediately update their browsers to apply the fix, which went out yesterday. According to the Chrome release blog (spotted by Bleeping Computer), this is a high-priority fix for an out of bounds write error, and yes, it’s being exploited in the deep, dark wilds of the web.
Of course it’s better that security flaws be fixed than, well, not fixed, but there seem to be just a ton of high-profile issues popping up with Chrome as of late. Even so, it remains the number one browser on the planet on both mobile and desktop platforms by a wide margin. Don’t wait too long to click that update button.
To patch Chrome immediately, head to Options > Help > About Google Chrome. Wait for the update to download and reset your browser when instructed.
