The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has added one more security vulnerability to its list of bugs known to be exploited in attacks.

The flaw (tracked as CVE-2022-4262) was patched as an actively exploited zero-day bug in the Google Chrome web browser on Friday for Windows, Mac, and Linux users.

In a security advisory published right before the weekend, Google said it "is aware of reports that an exploit for CVE-2022-4262 exists in the wild."

This is the ninth Chrome zero-day exploited in the wild that Google has patched since the start of the year.

The bug is caused by a high-severity type confusion weakness in the Chromium V8 JavaScript engine reported by Clement Lecigne of Google's Threat Analysis Group.
