Google Chrome, the widely-used web browser, faces a significant security threat that could impact millions of users globally. The Indian government's Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) has issued a high severity warning regarding this potential vulnerability.

According to a statement dated March 8 from CERT-In, Google Chrome has multiple vulnerabilities that could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a Denial of Service (DoS) attack on users' systems.

The vulnerabilities stem from errors within the FedCM component, out-of-bounds memory access, and inappropriate implementation in V8, as outlined in the bulletin. Attackers could exploit these weaknesses by sending specially crafted web pages to targeted systems.

The bulletin specifies that successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could lead to arbitrary code execution or a DoS attack. The affected versions of Google Chrome include those preceding 122.0.6261.111/.112 for Windows and Mac, and 122.0.6261.111 for Linux.

However, there's reassuring news as Google has acknowledged the security flaw and is deploying a fix. The company announced that the new version, 122.0.6261.111/.112 for Windows and Mac, and 122.0.6261.111 for Linux, will be available for users in the coming days and weeks.
