Exclamation Warning!! New Chrome 0-Day Bug Being Exploited In The Wild

Google Chrome released a new security update for Windows, Linux & Mac users and an update for a new high severity Zero-day bug that is being actively exploited wild by unknown threat actors.

Chrome 104 was released with the fixes of 11 security vulnerabilities, including one critical severity bug and six high severity bugs reported by the Google Project Zero Team and external security researchers.

To upgrade your old Chrome, then you have to follow a few simple steps below:

First of all, you have to go to Settings.
Then click on the Help option.
After that, you have to select the About Google Chrome option.
That’s it, now your browser will automatically check for the new update and install it.

From this threat? No worries.
Just keep making sure your system is up to date. That is the number one reason people and businesses become compromised.
