Urgent: Google Issues Emergency Patch for Chrome Zero-Day


With scant details attached, Google Chrome seeks to shore up yet another exploited zero-day vulnerability.



Google Chrome has issued an urgent fix for an actively exploited zero-day bug in its browser. 
This is the seventh Chrome actively
exploited zero-day flaw
this year, underscoring how big of a target it has become for cyberattacks. 
As users scramble to patch, Google isnt releasing many details about the vulnerability, tracked under CVE-2022-3723, except to note that its a type confusion bug in V8, which is Googles open source high-performance JavaScript and WebAssembly engine. Type confusion bugs are can lead to out-of-bounds memory access and arbitrary code execution,
according to MITRE
.
Access to bug details and links may be kept restricted until a majority of users are updated with a fix, Google said in its
urgent update
. We will also retain restrictions if the bug exists in a third party library that other projects similarly depend on, but haven’t yet fixed.
