Srinagar, June 19 -- The alert warns of critical vulnerabilities in Chrome's core components-including Compositing, libvpx, V8, FileSystemAccess API, Background Fetch API, and Tab Strip-that can be exploited by remote attackers. By luring users to malicious websites, hackers could potentially steal sensitive data, execute arbitrary code, or even crash systems, leading to denial of service (DoS).

CERT-In has flagged these issues as "High Risk", warning that both individuals and organizations are susceptible. The vulnerabilities stem from "Use-after-free" flaws, out-of-bounds writes, and inappropriate API implementations, making Chrome and Android lucrative targets for cyberattacks.
