Google on Tuesday promoted Chrome 143 to the stable channel with patches for 13 vulnerabilities reported by external researchers.
The fresh round of Chrome patches resolves four high-severity flaws, including a type confusion issue in the V8 JavaScript and WebAssembly engine, tracked as CVE-2025-13630.
The remaining high-severity defects include inappropriate implementation bugs in Google Updater (CVE-2025-13631) and DevTools (CVE-2025-13632), and a use-after-free flaw in Digital Credentials (CVE-2025-13633).
Google says that it handed out $11,000 for the V8 vulnerability, and $3,000 for the Google Updater bug.
The Chrome 143 patches address three medium-severity security holes: an inappropriate implementation flaw in Downloads, a bad cast bug in Loader, and a race condition in V8.
The remaining six vulnerabilities addressed with the release of Chrome 143 are low-severity flaws.
They include five inappropriate implementation defects in Downloads, Split View, WebRTC, and Passwords, and a use-after-free issue in Media Stream.
Google says it paid $18,000 in bug bounty rewards for four of the vulnerabilities, but has yet to disclose the amounts for six more issues.
The internet giant makes no mention of any of these security defects being exploited in the wild.
The latest Chrome iteration is now rolling out as version 143.0.7499.40 for Linux and versions 143.0.7499.40/41 for Windows and macOS.
On Tuesday, the Chrome patches were also rolled out for Android, in Chrome version 143.0.7499.52, and Chrome for iOS was updated to version 143.0.7499.92.
Additionally, Google announced that the browser’s Extended Stable channel has been updated to version 142.0.7499.226 for Windows and macOS.
Users are advised to apply the new Chrome patches as soon as possible, as Chrome vulnerabilities are often popular targets for threat actors.
