14 DAY TRIAL // Google rolled out a fresh stable release for Chrome browser, one designed to strengthen the security of the application.
The new revision did away with a total of 16 high-risk vulnerabilities and one labeled as critical, which dealt with memory corruption in SSL socket handling.
This release eliminates several use-after-free exploitable errors that occurred in HTML5 Audio, image and input handling, with SVG (scalable vector graphics) content or with workers accessing database APIs.
Additional security fixes refer to cross-origin namespace pollution, bad handle passed to renderer and memory corruption in Skia GPU handling.
All security flaws reported from external sources were rewarded with almost $10,000 / 7,640 EUR (cumulated).
At the moment all of the security bugs are private and information on them should be disclosed when most of the users have been updated to the new browser build.
