Google Chrome update alert: India's top cybersecurity organization, the Computer Emergency Response Team of India (CERT-In), has issued a high-risk alert regarding the desktop version of Google Chrome. According to the advisory, several serious security flaws have been found in versions of the Chrome browser that have not been updated beyond version 137.0.7151.119/.120 on Windows and macOS and version 137.0.7151.119 on Linux.

By exploiting these security vulnerabilities, cybercriminals can run dangerous code on a user's computer, crash the browser, or steal confidential information, all by simply visiting a dangerous or compromised website. Because these attacks can happen without any obvious signs, users may not know until important data is lost.

CERT-In asked users to do this immediately.
To protect their devices, CERT-In has urged users to immediately install the latest stable version of Google's Chrome browser. The official patch is now available. According to a recent update from Google, version 137.0.7151.119/.120 for Windows and macOS and 137.0.7151.119 for Linux has been released on the stable channel for desktops and will be rolled out gradually in the coming days or weeks.

Tips to stay safe
Update immediately: Update your Chrome browser to the latest stable version immediately to fix known vulnerabilities.

Turn on auto-update: Make sure Chrome's automatic update setting is activated so that future security fixes can be applied immediately.
Report issues: If you find a new bug or issue, report it using Google's official bug tracker or get in touch through the community support forum.
