Chrome Alert & Extra Handouts

[David Leippe]

1st note that  Google has confirmed that a newly discovered zero-day vulnerability in its Chrome browser, tracked as CVE-2026-5281, is being actively exploited in the wild, prompting urgent warnings for users and organizations worldwide. The high-severity flaw is part of a broader Chrome security update that also addresses 20 additional vulnerabilities. Google has begun rolling out patches, but the company cautioned that the update may take several days or even weeks to reach all users automatically.

Suggest you use a non Chromium based browser for the interim. That means Firefox for Windows or Linux users or Safari on the MacOS.

Attached is a more current hand out for the meeting tonight.

Also, attached is handout regarding the new technology called AI browsers. This is a summary of a handout from the March meeting with more emphasis regarding what they are calling Agentic AI browsers and why we should avoid them...

Cheers,
