Google Chrome security vulnerabilities

Overview

The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) issued a high-severity security advisory regarding multiple critical vulnerabilities in Google Chrome. These flaws, affecting desktop users on Windows, macOS, and Linux, are linked to memory management issues such as use-after-free errors within core components like V8, TabStrip, and Blink.

Security experts warned that attackers could exploit these weaknesses via malicious webpages to achieve remote code execution or unauthorized system access. Google has released patches to address these flaws, and users are urged to update their browsers to mitigate risks.
