Google has recently addressed two critical bugs in its Chrome browser that could potentially be exploited by cybercriminals. Users are urged to check their browser settings and promptly restart Chrome to ensure the fixes are applied.

The vulnerabilities, known as CVE-2026-3909 and CVE-2026-3910, were considered zero-day threats, indicating that malicious actors were actively taking advantage of them in the wild. Chrome’s engineering team has since patched these issues, but users must update to the latest version to be protected.

According to Google’s patch notes, exploits for both CVE-2026-3909 and CVE-2026-3910 are already circulating. To verify if your Chrome browser is up to date, navigate to the menu bar, select “About Google Chrome,” and check the version installed on your device.

Users with Chrome version 146.0.7680.75/76 for Windows/Mac or 146.0.7680.75 for Linux are secure. If running an older version, it is crucial to install the update promptly to shield against potential online threats. The update process is quick and straightforward, taking less than a minute to complete.

Google has rolled out the update to the Stable channel, with version 146.0.7680.75/76 for Windows/Mac and 146.0.7680.75 for Linux gradually becoming available over the following days and weeks.
