Quote:For Google Chrome and its 2 billion-plus desktop users, May will go down as a month to forget: four zero-days and emergency update warnings inside 10 days launched a tidal wave of wall-to-wall headlines that were hard to miss.

The U.S. government has warned federal employees to install May’s emergency updates or to cease using Chrome. They issued a June 3 deadline for the first of those updates to be applied and a June 6 update for the second. It’s now June 3, and so you should have already applied the first update. This is a timely reminder that you must ensure you have applied the second update within the next 72 hours. Clearly, when you update your browser, all fixes to that point will be applied.

Others organizations should do the same and mandate full employee compliance, as should personal users. Google rushed out emergency fixes for a reason.
