Google released an updated version of its Chrome browser on Thursday to fix nine high-severity vulnerabilities that if exploited could allow adversaries to take control of targeted systems. As part of the update, Google thanked nearly two dozen bug hunters with bug bounty payments totaling $38,000. Google said its Chrome version 57.0.2987.98 update for Windows, Mac and Linux includes a number of fixes and improvements; and will roll out them over the coming days and weeks. The update was released to Google s Stable channel, which means the software is fully tested.
