Google updates Chrome to third beta
Published November 7th, 2008 in Exploits & Vulnerabilities, Google
yesterday released the third beta version of Chrome, the browser it introduced nearly two months ago, to fix a single security vulnerability and address several other problems. Chrome 0.3.154.9 will be automatically pushed to current users, said Mark Larson, the browser’s product manager, in a note posted to a Google blog on Wednesday.
Users who had set Chrome to receive the more frequent developer updates have had most of the fixes and changes in 0.3.154.9 for some time, however. Larson characterized the one bug patched in the update as a "medium" threat, and said the fix shut down an address-spoofing flaw that attackers could use to trick users into thinking they were at a safe site when they were actually visiting a malicious or phishing URL.
