@Ruarí And in the background of course, the entrance to Månefisken - a spot for many great raves in the 90s

@Pathduck You tell me. I moved to Oslo in late 2008.

(Damn… I have lived here for almost 16 years. That more than ⅓ of my life!)

Oops. Here we go again.

"The Stable channel has been updated to 125.0.6422.112/.113 for Windows, Mac and 125.0.6422.112 for Linux...

This update includes 1 security fix...

[N/A][341663589] High CVE-2024-5274: Type Confusion in V8. Reported by Clément Lecigne of Google's Threat Analysis Group and Brendon Tiszka of Chrome Security on 2024-05-20

Google is aware that an exploit for CVE-2024-5274 exists in the wild."

I'm sure Ruari and the dev team knew about this through chromium developer network (or whatever it is called) and have the next minor update already in pipeline. An exploit in the wild means the team has to get another snapshot ready, too?

Thank you so much again for your hard work!!

@mimismum Just to confirm: Yes, the fix for CVE-2024-5274 is in this Minor Update; @Ruarí will update the article in the morning.

BTW, this is the actual Extended Stable release for that patch: https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2024/05/extended-stable-channel-update-for_23.html

@yngve: I have updated the post to mention this CVE.

@mimismum The Chrome 124 ESR release ends with .233. This stable is .236. We were covered from the moment we released FWIW.

Morning gentlemen,

Thanks for the pointer. I've started to get Chrome Releases feed but didn't know I should also be watching the ESR release. I promise no more false alert ~~port~~ post from me.

Cheers,
MM

@Ruarí
Thanks for the nice photo of you in the changelog.

Somehow it looks familiar to me.
Perhaps the same artist, as from a very well-known sculpture.
Very well done.

Where was it taken?

What is the background of this sculpture?

Was the wreath of flowers there before, or did you put it on?

I wrote this before I read your “Offtopic”.
