The latest update comes just days after Google released Chrome version 105 on August 30. “The Chrome team is delighted to announce the promotion of Chrome 105 to the stable channel for Windows, Mac and Linux. This will roll out over the coming days/weeks. Chrome 105.0.5195.52 ( Mac/linux) and 105.0.5195.52/53/54( Windows) contains a number of fixes and improvements,” said Google in the release note.
The affected Chrome version
The tech giant said it is aware of reports that an exploit for ‘CVE-2022-3075’ exists in the wild, mentioning the vulnerability as “Insufficient data validation in Mojo” reported by an anonymous security researcher. This is the sixth zero-day vulnerability Chrome has faced to date this year.
What should Chrome users do
For now, Chrome users need to relaunch their browser to activate the latest security update. The company said that it has released a security patch for Google Chrome users on Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems that will roll out over the coming days/weeks. “The Stable channel has been updated to 105.0.5195.102 for Windows,Mac and Linux which will roll out over the coming days/weeks,” Google said in a security update.
“Access to bug details and links may be kept restricted until a majority of users are updated with a fix,” adds the security update. “We will also retain restrictions if the bug exists in a third party library that other projects similarly depend on, but haven’t yet fixed,” it added.
Google thanked the security researchers who alerted the company about the bug. “We would like to thank all security researchers that worked with us during the development cycle to prevent security bugs from ever reaching the stable channel,” said the company.
