CERT-In Flags High-Severity Vulnerabilities in Google Chrome; Urges Immediate Update
CERT-In has issued a high-risk alert regarding several security flaws found in Google Chrome. Hackers can exploit these bugs to remotely execute code and take control of the system. Windows, macOS, and Linux users are advised to immediately update their Chrome browsers to the latest version to protect against any attacks.
The Indian CERT-In has issued a new advisory about multiple vulnerabilities in Google Chrome. In the advisory released on Friday, the vulnerabilities have been rated as 'High'. The cybersecurity agency has warned that the threat actors can use these bugs to remotely execute arbitrary code and gain control of the system. It is recommended that all users and organizations using Google Chrome on Windows, macOS, and Linux update their browser to its latest version.
In advisory CIVN-2025-0330, the cybersecurity agency in question pointed out two vulnerabilities in the versions of Google Chrome for Windows, macOS, and Linux. These are designated CVE-2025-13223 and CVE-2025-13224, both with a "high" severity rating. According to the agency itself, these bugs could cause system damage and service disruption.
According to the agency, these flaws could allow a remote attacker to run arbitrary code on an unprotected system. This occurs due to type confusion, a situation in which a piece of code attempts to access a resource using a data type that is incompatible with the object's actual type.
