On November 9, 2026, Google released the latest minor update for the Chrome browser on desktop (Windows, Mac, and Linux) and Android, fixing a total of nine vulnerabilities, including seven rated "High."
Among these, CVE-2026-125350 has been confirmed to be exploited in actual attacks.
With this update, versions 157.0.8103.50/.51 are rolling out to Windows and Mac, while version 157.0.8103.50 is rolling out to Linux and Android. The update is scheduled to roll out gradually over the coming days and weeks.
Security Fixes
This update resolves a total of nine vulnerabilities: seven rated "High" and two rated "Medium." The seven "High" severity fixes are as follows:
-

The two "Medium" severity vulnerabilities are both uninitialized resources in GPU (CVE-2026-125349 and CVE-2026-125342).
Google maintains a policy of restricting access to bug details and technical information until a majority of users have updated with a fix.
Additionally, this update does not include any fixes classified under the highest severity rating, "Critical."
Similar Fixes Rolling Out to Chrome for Android
On the same date, Google also updated Chrome for Android to 157.0.8103.50, which will become available on Google Play over the next few days.
According to the release notes, this release includes stability and performance improvements and, unless otherwise noted, contains the same security fixes as the desktop version.
I also confirmed on a physical device that Chrome for Googlebook has been updated to the same version.
How to Manually Apply the Update
Because this update includes a fix for a vulnerability already confirmed to be exploited in the wild, I recommend checking and updating manually rather than waiting for automatic updates.
For the Play Store, you can check for updates under [Profile icon] > [Manage apps & device], or search directly for Chrome and select [Update].
