Google released an update to its Chrome browser on September 2 that includes fixes for vulnerabilities in the Mac and Windows versions.
The Chrome 105.0.5195.102 update is available and fixes a high-risk security vulnerability that patches a dangerous 0-day exploit, a security hole that can be maliciously exploited immediately after being discovered. This is the sixth 0-day vulnerability the company has patched so far in 2022.
The five previously patched 0-day vulnerabilities are CVE-2022-0609, CVE-2022-1096, CVE-2022-1364, CVE-2022-2294 and CVE-2022-2856.
The anonymous report states that the new vulnerability, CVE-2022-3075, is caused by insufficient data validation in Mojo, a set of runtime libraries that help pass messages across arbitrary inter-process and intra-process boundaries.
Google said, “Access to bug details and links may be restricted until the fix is updated for most users. We will also retain restrictions if the bug exists in third-party libraries that other projects similarly rely on but have not yet fixed.”
