Google Releases Chrome 74 Update With Critical Security Fixes by lennyotn: 11:47am On May 01, 2019
Google has released a new version of Chrome browser that brings critical security fixes to all supported desktop platforms.

Google Chrome 74 was officially launched last week, so this is the first update that this major release receives.

The update brings it to version 74.0.3729.131 on Windows, Linux, and Mac, and it includes two different security fixes. Google has published only a few details about the security flaws addressed in this release, explaining that further details would be published at a later time until “a majority of users are updated with a fix.”

The following two issues have been resolved in this Chrome update, according to Google’s announcement:

[$500][952406] High CVE to be assigned: Out-of-bounds access in SQLite. Reported by mlfbrown on 2019-04-12

[$TBD][948564] Medium CVE-2019-5824: Parameter passing error in media player. Reported by leecraso on 2019-04-02
"Chrome still number 1"

Additionally, Google reveals that the previous Chrome update to version 74 also includes a previously undisclosed security fix resolving an out-of-bounds write and use-after-free bug. Google offered a bounty of more than $25,000 for this vulnerability report.

Google Chrome is currently the leading browser on the desktop, according to data provided by NetMarketShare for the month of April.
