Google Chrome users face high security risk

India's cyber security agency, CERT-In, has flagged some serious security holes in Google Chrome for Windows, Mac, and Linux (if you're not on version 137.0.7151.119/.120 or newer).
These bugs could let hackers crash your browser or even take control of your system—definitely not something you want to risk.

TL;DR

How these vulnerabilities can be exploited

The vulnerabilities are tied to issues in Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine and some other tools inside the browser.
Hackers might trick you into visiting a sketchy website, which could lead to data theft or a full-on system takeover.

How to update Google Chrome

CERT-In's advice is simple: update Chrome right away.
Just head to 'Help' > 'About Google Chrome' in your menu—Chrome will grab the latest version and keep you protected after a quick restart.
It only takes a minute and helps keep your info safe.
