The Stable channel has now been updated to version 130.0.6723.116/.117 for Windows and Mac and version 130.0.6723.116 for Linux.

The update will be rolled out to users over the next few days or weeks, and a complete list of changes is available in the Chrome Log.

Security Fixes and Rewards

This update includes two significant security fixes reported by anonymous external researchers.

These vulnerabilities, classified as “high-severity,” involve a “use after free” flaw, potentially allowing an attacker to exploit memory management issues. Details of these vulnerabilities are as follows:

CVE IDSeverityComponentReported ByDate Reported
CVE-2024-10826HighFamily ExperiencesAnonymous2024-09-29
CVE-2024-10827HighSerialAnonymous2024-10-23

To protect users, access to bug details and links may be restricted until most users have updated their browsers to the latest version.

Additionally, Google may continue to withhold information if the vulnerability exists in third-party libraries that other projects depend on and if those projects have not yet addressed the issue. 

Google has expressed its gratitude to the security researchers who contributed to identifying these vulnerabilities and preventing them from reaching a stable release.

Users are advised to update their Chrome browser when the new version becomes available to protect them against these vulnerabilities.

Google provides resources on how to switch release channels for those interested in doing so.
