Google releases new Chrome browser security update.
If you are something like me, then I will bet you are somewhat conflicted when it comes to seemingly endless flow of security updates for your chrome internet browser. After all, if you are not the user of the iOS application, it is unlikely that one or two weeks passes without a new set of security weaknesses discovered by researchers who are serious enough to require adjustment, and quick adjustment. That is, on the one hand, a good thing as it means Google is taking your safety seriously and keeping Chrome as safe; On the other hand, it is a monumental pain in the back to find yourself constantly advising to update now. On the positive side of the security fence, however, at least the process of updating the Google Chrome security is an automatic thing. Or not? Well, kind. If you want to protect yourself from the last trio of security weaknesses, that automation only works if you do a critical thing. Here’s what you need to know and do now.
Google certifies the trio of new chrome security weaknesses
Google has confirmed that a trio of new security weaknesses have been discovered by foreign security researchers, or hackers as I want to call them, affecting the Chrome web browser on all platforms except iOS. Although, as is the ways of the case with these security issues, Google is not making the full technical details of what these weaknesses bring public until such a time when most Chrome users have had the opportunity to update their applications, here What do we know at this point.
- Cve-2025-0999 is a high-second high-convening safety issue affecting the V8 Javascript interpretation engine.
- Cve-2025-1426 is a matter of high retail safety that affects the chrome browser’s GPU.
- Cve-2025-1426 is a medium-high use after the free memory safety issue affecting the network.
Google Chrome security update in versions 133.0.6943.121/.126/.127
Google has said that durable channels for all users of Android, Linux, Mac and Windows of the CHROME web browser are now updated in the following versions: 133.0.6943.121 for Android, 133.0.6943.126 for Linux and 133.6943.126/. 127 for Mac and Windows. These updates will start to come out “during the coming days and weeks”, according to Google, but given the seriousness of the weaknesses involved, it is definitely much safer to ensure that your chrome app is updated as soon as possible possible. With whom I mean immediately. And this is where things get involved a little more than you can imagine, given that the process is supposedly an automated for the vast majority of users across the platforms. Especially if you, like me and so many other online browser users, want to keep a funny number of open tabs at any given time.
Do this 1 thing or your chrome browser will not be protected from attack
This should be more direct of user guides ever. After all, Chrome automatically updates, right? Well, kind. If you leave things alone, then Chrome, indeed, will eventually be updated on its own, and you will be quick to resume it after it is ready to activate that update. But here’s the problem: this takes time, which I can assure you that the attackers will use against you. Much better to start the process yourself and make sure you update you as soon as possible. This is easy enough: head to HELP | About the option on the Google Chrome menu, and a check for each update will execute and offer to install if available.
So what is the only thing I mentioned is so critical of your protection? That is, she resumes. If you do not rebuild your chrome browser, the update will not be activated, and you will not be protected. You have to re -come the browser, it’s the last cog at the update wheel. So save your tabs, think about it as a good opportunity to free some memory and clean the things you don’t really need, and hit that button.
