An emergency update to Google’s Chrome browser has been released and the company
says every computer user should update the browser right away.

Chrome is the world’s most popular browser and is installed on nearly 63% of all
computers. According to its Chrome blog, Google says it’s rolling out the update
to all users and it should be available to everyone now.

The update, 100.0.4896 patches a “zero-day” vulnerability, meaning hackers are
already exploiting the bug and maybe installing arbitrary code on computers
through the Chrome browser.

Google isn’t releasing any details about the vulnerability until it gives users
time to install the update.

Microsoft says the vulnerability also affects its Windows Edge browser and
released a critical update as well.

To check for and install the update on a Chrome browser:

Tap the three dots at the top right of the Chrome browser window
Scroll down to click “help” and then “about” to see which version of Chrome you
are currently running an update to the new version.

On the Windows Edge browser, click on the three horizontal dots at the top right
of the window
Scroll down to click “help and feedback”, then “About Edge”.

Many users have automatic updates turned on but for those that don’t, this is an
update you should install right away.

Once Google gives users time to install the update it will release more
information on the vulnerability.
