Overview
- The high-severity advisory covers Chrome on Windows, macOS and Linux, with builds prior to 143.0.7499.40/41 identified as vulnerable.
- CERT-In cites issues including type confusion and race conditions in V8 plus use-after-free bugs in Digital Credentials and media components.
- Attackers could exploit the flaws via a specially crafted web page to run code, steal data, bypass protections or gain elevated privileges.
- Users are instructed to check Help > About Google Chrome to trigger the update and to relaunch the browser because fixes apply only after restart.
- Outlets note related risk for other Chromium-based browsers, with Microsoft Edge users having received similar warnings earlier this month.
