Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Google Chrome, as a result Google is urging users to upgrade their browsers. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the logged-on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the logged-on user, an attacker could view, change, or delete data. If the logged-on user has been configured to have fewer rights on the system, exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could have less impact than if they were configured with administrative rights.
What You Should Do
In response to this threat, Google has released Chrome 103.0.5060.114 for Windows and 103.0.5060.71 for Android. While Android can automatically update and restart Chrome itself, Windows users must follow these steps:
- Click the three dots in the top right corner of Chrome.
- Click Settings > Help > About Google Chrome.
- Wait for Chrome to find and install the update.
- When prompted, restart Chrome (this last step is critical).
