Elevated operating-system privileges are not established.
If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.
No vulnerability-specific interim workaround is documented. Updating to a security-fixed browser release is the recommended action.
Patch, then assume compromise.
Upgrade Chrome to a fixed release: 155.0.8059.84 or later on Windows and Linux, or 155.0.8059.85 or later on macOS. Restart Chrome to complete installation and verify the installed version across managed devices. For Chromium installations, apply the distribution-provided security update incorporating version 155.0.8059.84 or later. Fedora advisories additionally require logging out and back in after installing the update.
