Google has identified  a major security risk to the browser and also added a security update for the browser. Here is more info from Google Chrome’s blog
Severity: Critical. An attacker might be able to run code with the privileges of the logged on user.
If you are using Google Chrome now, what you need to do, is check if your Google Chrome installation is latest. Â I have explained how to do this here The version should show “Â 1.0.154.64″ for stable version users. If this is not the current version of your browser, you will see an “upgrade” link next to it, click it, and then restart the browser when upgrade is done.
Along with this new security patch, this release also contains
- A new notification at startup that makes it easier to set Google Chrome as the default browser. If you don’t want Google Chrome to be the default browser, you can click ‘Don’t ask again’.
- A new version of Gears (0.5.16.0)
Most of you will have the latest version installed, automatically. Surprised ? What Google
Chrome Fans Blog explains here is so true, the auto update feature really rocks !!
Hi, are there dates on your posts? I sure can’t find one on this page (but using Sierra on an iPhone).
