Indian IT Ministry’s Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) often analyzes popular applications and tools to test their security. If any version of an app contains security vulnerabilities, CERT-In issues security warnings to notify users about their privacy risks. Last year, we saw Google Chrome roll out an emergency update to fix critical security vulnerabilities following a CERT-In report. However, the cyber agency has issued yet another security warning for Chrome. Let’s take a look at the details right away!
According to a recent security warning report by CERT-In, Google Chrome users are at huge risk. The cyber agency warns users of multiple security vulnerabilities that could allow attackers to perform various system functions and gain remote access to a user’s device.
Hover over the “Help” option and then select the “About Google Chrome” option.
Following this, Google Chrome will automatically check if there are any latest updates available or not. If an update is available, it will install the same, and you will simply have to relaunch Google Chrome to be updated to the latest version.
Hence, ensure that your Chrome browser is up-to-date. To recall, CERT-In recently issued a warning regarding Mozilla Firefox, asking users to update their browser to version 98 to avoid any security and privacy risks.
