My thoughts on Slackware, life and everything

Chromium 78.0.3904.87 addresses an exploit in the wild

The Chromium update of this week addresses a vulnerability for which an 0-day exploit is actively being used. It’s the CVE-2019-13720 (Use-after-free in audio) which was caught by Kaspersky’s exploit prevention program.

Fresh packages for Slackware 14.2 or -current are already available in my repository, so please upgrade at the earliest.

Cheers!

Eric

    Thanks for keeping safe Chromium users, Eric!

    Hopefully Chromium will offer an alternative to blind Firefox users in a few months, cf.: https://slint.fr/blog/

    Cheers, Didier
