With over 3 billion users, Chrome/Chromium is now among the most targeted software in the world and Google acknowledges the number of zero-day attacks are rising, That said, the security protocols have never been better (with some notable exceptions ), although they do rely on users to keep their software up to date. It's a continual game of cat and mouse between developers and hackers and credit lies primarily in working with security specialists to pre-emptively discover and patch flaws and minimize the time any zero-day exploit is available before a patch is ready. Brave's latest release notes confirm the patched version of Chromium is available for its browser, and while the Opera and Vivaldi blogs have yet to be updated to list their latest versions, I understand both browsers are running the newly secured version of Chromium. Other Chromium-based browser companies are also following Google's lead and releasing emergency updates. In addition to its warnings to FCEB agencies, the CISA also stresses that all private and public sector Chrome users should update immediately to reduce exposure to ongoing cyberattacks.
The CISA has also added the zero-day into its 'Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog' and uses the hashtag #CriticalPatch.
BleepingComputer now reports that the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has ordered all federal agencies to immediately patch the CVE-2022-1096 exploit. Reported by anonymous on Ġ3/29 Update: Concern around this security vulnerability continues to build.
