The tech giant began issuing out weekly rather than fortnightly browser security updates at the beginning of August.
In this week’s update, four high risk security flaws have been fixed.
Google hasn’t said whether any of the cyber gaps have been exploited by hackers in the wild.
The update will automatically install on people’s browsers in the coming weeks.
Despite no mention of hackers noticing these security holes, web users have been urged to update their browser as soon as possible.
Desktop users may speed up the installation of the update by loading chrome://settings/help, or selecting Menu > Help > About Google Chrome.
Check the list below for the right update to install on each eligible device:
- Chrome for Linux and Mac: 116.0.5845.179
- Chrome Extended Stable channel for Mac: 116.0.5845.179
