Google released emergency updates to fix another Chrome zero-day vulnerability exploited in attacks, marking the fourth such security flaw patched since the start of the year.

"Google is aware that an exploit for CVE-2026-5281 exists in the wild," Google said in a security advisory issued on Tuesday.

As detailed in the Chromium commit history, this vulnerability stems from a use-after-free weakness in Dawn, the underlying cross-platform implementation of the WebGPU standard used by the Chromium project.

Attackers can exploit this Dawn security flaw to trigger web browser crashes, data corruption, rendering issues, or other abnormal behavior.

While Google has found evidence that threat actors were exploiting this zero-day flaw in the wild, it did not share details about these incidents.

"Access to bug details and links may be kept restricted until a majority of users are updated with a fix. We will also retain restrictions if the bug exists in a third party library that other projects similarly depend on, but haven't yet fixed," the company noted.

Google has now fixed the zero-day for users in the Stable Desktop channel, with new versions rolling out to Windows, macOS (146.0.7680.177/178), and Linux users (146.0.7680.177). While Google says that this out-of-band update could take days or weeks to reach all users, it was immediately available when BleepingComputer checked for updates today.

 
Google Chrome Rolls Out Vertical Tabs and Full-Page Reading Mode to All Users
Google has begun a broad rollout of vertical tabs and an updated full-page Reading Mode in Chrome, making both features available without the need to enable experimental flags. The rollout is happening gradually and is tied to Chrome 146. Users who do not see either feature immediately may need to wait until the update reaches their installation.

Vertical tabs were previously limited to Chrome Beta following their announcement in January 2026. The Reading Mode update is being announced alongside the changes to the tab layout.
