Say what you will about Google, they do a great job of fixing security issues in their flagship browser software, Chrome.

Google recently released Chrome 66.0.3359.139, which includes fixes for three security vulnerabilities. The complete list of changes can be found in the change log.

As usual, Google says the new version “will roll out over the coming days/weeks”. Unless you’ve disabled all of Google’s automatic updating mechanisms, Chrome will update itself, but it’s difficult to predict exactly when that will happen. However, you can usually trigger an update by running Chrome, clicking its menu button (the three dot icon at the top right), and selecting Help > About Google Chrome.

The latest version of Google Chrome includes sixty-two security fixes, and a limited trial of a new feature called Site Isolation that should help to reduce the risk from Spectre-related vulnerabilities.

The change log for Chrome 66.0.3359.117 is another whopper, listing over ten thousand changes in total.

Check your version of Chrome by clicking the three-vertical-dots menu button at the top right, and selecting Help > About Google Chrome. Doing that will usually trigger an update if one is pending.

A single security issue prompted the release of Chrome 65.0.3325.181 earlier this week.

Since this is a security update, it’s a good idea to check what version of Chrome you’re running, and update it if necessary.

Chrome usually updates itself automatically, but you can encourage it to update by selecting Help > About Google Chrome from its menu ( at the top right).

Chrome 65 features forty-five security fixes, and includes over ten thousand changes in total, none of which seem worth highlighting.

Chrome will update itself automatically on most platforms, but you can usually encourage it to update by selecting Help > About Google Chrome from its menu (hidden behind that weird three-dot button at the top right).

A single security bug was fixed in Chrome 64.0.3282.167, released by Google on February 13.

The new version will find its way to your desktop automatically, unless you’re diligent about killing Google’s pesky auto-update processes. If that describes you, or you just don’t want to wait, you can usually encourage Chrome to update itself by navigating to > Help > About Google Chrome.

There’s additional information in the full change log for Chrome 64.0.3282.167.

The full change log lists ten thousand changes in the new version. There might be some interesting stuff in there, but I’m going to assume that if there was anything worth pointing out, Google would have done that in the release announcement.

Two security vulnerabilities, one of which has a High risk rating, are addressed in Chrome 63.0.3239.108. The log lists a few additional changes, none of which are particularly interesting.
