The two zero-day vulnerabilities fixed today were disclosed to Google on September 8th, 2021, and are both memory bugs.
While Google has disclosed that both bugs have been exploited in the wild, they have not shared further information regarding the attacks.
With these two vulnerabilities, Google has now patched a total of ten zero-day vulnerabilities in Chrome in 2021.
As these vulnerabilities are known to have been exploited in the wild, it is strongly advised that all Google Chrome update to the latest version immediately.
