Hack Alert! Google issues warning to Chrome users
Google Chrome, approximately used by 2.65BN users, dominates the web browser market.
The problem with such dominance, however, is Chrome has become the number one target for hackers and now Google has had to issue another serious upgrade warning.
This dominance has caused it to be a major target for hackers. The company recently issued an upgrade warning to its users.
“Google is aware that exploits for CVE-2021-30632 and CVE-2021-30633 exist in the wild,” the company said.
Google said a stable channel has been updated to 93.0.4577.82 for Windows, Mac and Linux which will roll out over the coming days/weeks.
What you should know
This is not the first time that Google’s Chrome is encountering zero-day threats. Earlier this year, the company issued updates after suffering a series of zero-day threats that stemmed from a bug in the V8 JavaScript engine used in the web browser. The company is actively fixing these vulnerabilities at a rapid rate.
