The Indian government has announced that there are high risk vulnerabilities in Google Chrome for desktop that could allow remote attackers to run malicious code and steal confidential information.  Users are advised to update to the latest versions of Google Chrome immediately to avoid any mishap.

The country’s cybersecurity authority, the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) has that these vulnerabilities have been discovered in Google Chrome versions prior to 137.0.7151.119/.120 for Windows and Mac and Google Chrome versions prior to 137.0.7151.119 for Linux.

“Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Google Chrome which could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service (DoS) condition on the targeted system,” CERT-In says. The firm says that all end users, including organisation who are on these old versions of Google Chrome are affected.

Due to these vulnerabilities, there is high risk of sensitive information disclosure or system instability. For organisations, these vulnerabilities could risk system compromise and service disruptions.

Google has these bugs in its latest Google Chrome update. Users are urged to update to keep their information uncompromised. Google says that the global roll out will be completed over the coming days. It is also recommended to turn on auto updates and report if any problem is spotted on the desktop browser.
