IN July 2026, Google released a significant update for Chrome, fixing 382 security vulnerabilities, including 15 rated as critical. The update was part of a broader trend following Microsoft’s large patch and addresses weaknesses that could allow attackers to execute code outside Chrome's security sandbox. Users are encouraged to update their browsers manually or allow automatic updates to ensure they are protected.
One notable vulnerability, CVE-2026-13789, allows potential sandbox escapes via compromised HTML pages. Google employs advanced tools and AI to identify these issues before they can be exploited by others.
