Chrome 55.0.2883.75

A new version of Chrome fixes at least thirty-six security issues in the browser. Aside from listing the vulnerabilities addressed, the release announcement says only that Chrome 55.0.2883.75 “contains a number of fixes and improvements”. You’ll have to read the change log to figure out what else is different. Sadly, the full change log is another one of those browser-killing monstrosities, with almost 10,000 changes listed. Don’t click that link if you have an older computer.

About jrivett

Jeff Rivett has worked with and written about computers since the early 1980s. His first computer was an Apple II+, built by his father and heavily customized. Jeff's writing appeared in Computist Magazine in the 1980s, and he created and sold a game utility (Ultimaker 2, reviewed in the December 1983 Washington Apple Pi Journal) to international markets during the same period. Proceeds from writing, software sales, and contract programming gigs paid his way through university, earning him a Bachelor of Science (Computer Science) degree at UWO. Jeff went on to work as a programmer, sysadmin, and manager in various industries. There's more on the About page, and on the Jeff Rivett Consulting site.
