A Chrome 80 update released on Monday patches three high-severity vulnerabilities, including one that Google says has been exploited in the wild.
Google has credited Clement Lecigne of its Threat Analysis Group for reporting the vulnerability.
The other two flaws patched by Google on Monday with the release of Chrome 80.0.3987.122 have been described as an integer overflow in ICU and an out-of-bounds memory access issue in the streams component.
Several Chrome vulnerabilities have been exploited in attacks over the past year.
Other Chrome vulnerabilities were exploited alongside a Windows zero-day.
