UAE Cybersecurity Council Urges Immediate Chrome Update to Address Critical Vulnerabilities

The UAE Cybersecurity Council has issued a security advisory urging Google Chrome users to update their browsers immediately to protect against multiple vulnerabilities.

The Council recommends installing the latest security updates and sharing this critical information with subsidiaries and partners to ensure comprehensive protection.

In a statement, Google confirmed the release of a security update addressing a serious vulnerability that could allow attackers to execute remote code on affected systems or access sensitive data.

Chrome Update Details

Google announced that the Chrome stable channel has been updated to 131.0.6778.139/.140 for Windows and Mac and 131.0.6778.139 for Linux. The updates will be rolled out gradually over the coming days and weeks.

Access to detailed bug reports and links will remain restricted until a significant number of users have applied the update. Google also noted that restrictions might continue if the vulnerabilities are tied to third-party libraries used by other projects that have not yet implemented a fix.

The UAE Cybersecurity Council reiterated the urgency of applying these updates to safeguard systems and advised users to stay vigilant about browser security.

For more details on the vulnerabilities, users can refer to the official Cybersecurity Council advisory or Google’s blog announcement.
