New Chrome update fixes over 100 security holes hackers could use

Google has released a Chrome update that fixes 108 security problems, including serious flaws that could let a harmful website take control of a device. People who use Chrome should update their browser as soon as possible to reduce the risk.


Who is at risk

Anyone using the Chrome browser on Windows, Mac, or Linux is at risk, especially people who browse many websites or click links from email, texts, or social media.

What to watch for

Watch for Chrome asking to restart to finish an update, unexpected browser behavior, or links that lead to suspicious or unfamiliar websites.

What to do

Open Chrome, go to Settings > About Chrome, install any available update, and restart the browser immediately.
