If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.
If immediate patching is not possible, restrict access to untrusted websites, educate users to avoid suspicious links, and consider deploying browser security controls or sandboxing to limit the impact of exploitation. Monitor for vendor updates and apply security patches as soon as they become available.
Patch, then assume compromise.
