Two bugs found in Chrome

Submitted by admin on 26 August 2009 - 10:10pm
As Google admits, two serious bugs have been found in the Chrome browser.
The first one, detected by Mozilla Security, resides in the V8 engine which is used by Chrome to process Javascript. As the result of Google's programmers mistake, it is possible to create a code, which enables attacker to take the full control over the victim's machine. The second bug relates to the way in which Chrome uses XML. Specially written code can hang a browser and even the operating system instantly. Google has not published details about these bugs and is waiting for most users to download the appropriate patch embedded in the latest edition of Chrome.
