Google has patched vulnerabilities in Chrome; Update yet to be released
Google just patched a vulnerability in Google Chrome which was being exploited by some hackers.
CVE-2025-2738
The vulnerability was found by Kaspersky after it had been used by hackers operating under the hacking campaign named Operation ForumTroll.
How was it used?
- Phishing emails inviting victims to a Russian global political summit.
- After clicking on the link, users were taken to a malicious website.
- This website had a bug which would gain access to the computer data.
An interesting aspect of this hacking attempt is that it escaped Chrome’s sandbox initiative, which keeps personal data of a computer inaccessible to Google Chrome.
Although Google has patched the vulnerability, it is yet to upgrade Chrome, and thus users are still unsafe.
