Google this week announced the release of a Chrome browser update that resolves a total of 13 vulnerabilities, including nine that were reported by external researchers.

Of the externally reported security holes, seven are use-after-free bugs – these types of vulnerabilities could lead to arbitrary code execution.

Based on severity ratings and the currently listed bug bounties, the most important of these flaws is CVE-2022-1633, a high-severity use-after-free in Sharesheet that was reported by Khalil Zhani, who was awarded a $5,000 reward for the find.
