The Stable channel has been updated to version 127.0.6533.99/.100 for Windows and Mac and 127.0.6533.99 for Linux. This update will be rolled out over the coming days and weeks.

Google has noted that access to bug details and links may be restricted until most users are updated with the fix. This precautionary measure ensures that malicious actors do not exploit these vulnerabilities before users can update their browsers.
Additionally, restrictions will remain if the bug exists in a third-party library that other projects similarly depend on but have not yet fixed.
Google expressed gratitude to all security researchers who collaborated during the development cycle to prevent security bugs from reaching the stable channel.
The company encourages users interested in switching release channels to learn how to do it on their official page.
They also invite users to report new issues by filing a bug or seeking assistance through the community help forum. Users can visit the Chrome Security Page for more information on the security fixes and to stay updated on future releases.
