Google Warns Users about Chrome Zero-Day Exploit
News summary

Google has issued urgent warnings following the discovery of multiple zero-day vulnerabilities in its Chrome browser, specifically CVE-2024-7965 and CVE-2024-7971, which are reportedly being exploited by hackers, including a North Korean group known as Citrine Sleet. These vulnerabilities, one of which was linked to cryptocurrency theft, prompted the U.S. government's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to mandate updates for federal employees. Google has confirmed that users who have already updated their systems are protected, while those who have not are urged to do so immediately to avoid potential exploits. Additionally, the ongoing cyberattack attributed to Russian spies involved spyware from Intellexa, highlighting a broader trend of increased cyber threats globally. Experts warn that frequent updates and vigilance are necessary as these attacks may become more common. Users are advised to consider alternative browsers if they remain concerned about Chrome's security vulnerabilities.
