Chrome GPO Allow/Block Sites not working after update

[Tom Bagley]

Hi I hope someone can help.

I am currently using the windows GPOs to white/blacklist URLs for our Chrome users.  I set the blacklist to * to block everything then whitelist specific URLs which they need access to.  This has been working fine until today.  Chrome has updated to 60.0.3112.90 and one by one the users all reported all website have now been blocked.

If I remove the blacklist wildcard * the sites work again however the whitelist no longer appears to override the wildcard and I'm currently left in a situation where either all websites are blocked or none are blocked.  I have a PC out of the update scope that has Chrome version 59.0.3071.115 that is still working with the identical GPO being applied to it.

Looks like there's no option to rollback - has anyone else experienced this since Ver 60 or have any suggestions as I'm currently drawing a blank!  Have tried recreating the GPO and reinstalling Chrome to no avail.

Thanks,

Tom

Chromium-discuss is the better forum for this type of question.  If you post to another forum, adding a cross-ref here will help others follow the issue.
As of this post, there are no current relevant blacklist or whitelist topics there.

In the Chrome Help Forum - this 8/15 post describes a workaround using multiple blacklist strings.  This would be a good place to continue the exchange.

Sounds like this is a 60.0.3112.90 change or bug.  You should also scan the CRBugs list.
