Google today outed the latest stable version of its popular web browser for Mac, Windows, and Linux computers, Chrome 33.0.1750.146. A security-focused release, this update patches almost two dozen vulnerabilities in the browser.

Subscribers to Google’s Stable Channel for Chrome releases are being notified today that the web browser has been updated to version 33.0.1750.146 for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Anthony Laforge reveals on the Google Chrome Releases blog that Chrome 33.0.1750.146 is a security-centric update that deals a heavy blow to almost two dozen vulnerabilities, with a full list of addressed bugs being provided as well.

“This update includes 19 security fixes,” writes Laforge. “[...] we highlight fixes that were either contributed by external researchers or particularly interesting.”

The Google staffer asks visitors to check out the Chromium security page for more information about this release. Many of the security issues were detected using AddressSanitizer, a fast memory error detector that consists of a compiler instrumentation module and a runtime library.
