Google has released the Chrome 151 update, addressing 41 critical and high-severity vulnerabilities. This update includes fixes for six critical issues, such as five use-after-free vulnerabilities found in WebGL, Aura, Skia, and Views, and an out-of-bounds write in the ANGLE graphics engine. While Google identified four of these critical flaws internally, external researchers discovered two significant issues in WebGL. The company has yet to finalize the bug bounty rewards for these findings.

Additionally, Chrome 151 resolves 35 high-severity vulnerabilities, with 24 of them being memory safety bugs. These include various defects like use-after-free, buffer overflow, and out-of-bounds write. Other issues addressed involve insufficient validation of untrusted input, race conditions, and integer overflows. Google's integration of AI technology is enhancing its ability to release patches more swiftly, although this update includes fewer fixes compared to previous iterations.

Chrome 151 is now available as versions 151.0.7922.108/.109 for Windows and macOS, and version 151.0.7922.108 for Linux. Google has not reported any active exploits of these vulnerabilities, but users are urged to update their browsers promptly to ensure security.
