- Google announced a new Chrome update on Thursday, which patches a severe zero-day bug in the internet browser.
- The security vulnerability might have been exploited in the wild.
- Google’s Chrome update follows recent reports that North Korean hackers used zero-day attacks on internet browsers to run malware on computers belonging to cyber-security researchers.
Google’s Chrome is the world’s most popular internet browser. It’s available not just on Windows and Mac but also on iPhone and Android. Google often releases new versions of Chrome, which bring over new features and performance improvements. The latest update includes several novelties as well, like the new password management tool that helps you change potentially compromised or weak passwords. But Google also updates Chrome each time it has to patch a security issue that hackers can exploit, and Google did just that on Thursday. You should stop what you’re doing online right now and ensure that Google Chrome 88.0.4324.150 is the latest version of the browser installed on your machine. If it’s not, then download the update and reboot Chrome.
