One of the four blocked bugs - the one marked medium - is the first that got its finder a cash prize from Google's new bug bounty program. Access to information on those three flaws, as well as on one tagged 'medium,' have been blocked by Google, which regularly locks down details until it decides that a majority of Chrome users have upgraded to the patched version. Google ranked three of the bugs as 'high' in its severity scoring system. Yesterday, Google patched seven security vulnerabilities in the production edition of Chrome for Windows.
Today's update was to version 5.0.307.7 current Chrome users can wait for the automatic update, which should kick in within the next 24 hours, or if impatient, can select 'About Google Chrome' from the browser's 'Chrome' menu to check for and then download available updates.
