Google has released Chrome 103.0.5060.114 for Windows users to address a high-severity zero-day vulnerability exploited by attackers in the wild, the fourth Chrome zero-day patched in 2022.

This update was available immediately when BleepingComputer checked for new updates by going into Chrome menu > Help > About Google Chrome.

Although Google says this zero-day vulnerability was exploited in the wild, the company is yet to share technical details or a any info regarding these incidents.

With this update, Google has addressed the fourth Chrome zero-day since the start of the year.

The one fixed in February, CVE-2022-0609, was exploited by North Korean-backed state hackers weeks before the February patch, according to the Google Threat Analysis Group.

Because the zero-day patched today is known to have been used by attackers in the wild, is it strongly recommended to install today's Google Chrome update as soon as possible.
