Google this week released Chrome 80, beginning a promised process of locking down cookies and at the same time patching 56 vulnerabilities.
The California company paid at least $48,000 in bug bounties to researchers who reported some of the vulnerabilities. Ten were tagged as "High," the second-most serious in Google's four-step threat ranking. Half of those 10 were submitted by engineers of Google's own Project Zero team.
Chrome updates in the background, so most users can simply relaunch the browser to finish the upgrade. To manually update, select "About Google Chrome" from the Help menu under the vertical ellipsis at the upper right; the resulting tab shows that the browser has been updated or displays the download process before presenting a "Relaunch" button. Those who are new to Chrome can download the latest for Windows, macOS and Linux here.
