Google Chrome 150 patches critical flaws as release cadence shifts to two‑week cycle

Google released Chrome version 150 as the latest stable browser update on June 30, 2026, covering 15 security vulnerabilities. Two of the flaws are critical use‑after‑free bugs in the Ozone platform integration layer (CVE‑2026‑15764 and CVE‑2026‑15765) that could allow remote code execution. Additional high‑severity issues affect Skia, libyuv, V8 and other components, with fixes for memory‑use, buffer overflows and policy‑enforcement weaknesses.

Chrome holds about 71.2% of the global browser market, serving roughly 83 billion users. The update is being rolled out gradually to Windows, macOS and Linux systems, and Google urges individuals and organizations to install it promptly. The company also announced that Chrome 153, scheduled for September 8, 2026, will be the first release under a new two‑week release cadence, following earlier shifts from six‑week to four‑week cycles. This faster schedule is expected to double the number of stable versions shipped each year, potentially reaching 26 releases by year‑end.
