Thank you, CTOnews.com netizen Gin Ke, for your clue delivery! CTOnews.com, October 11 (Xinhua)-- Google today launched a stable update of Chrome 118 browser, focusing on fixing 20 security vulnerabilities, as well as introducing some new features and changes.

The latest version of CTOnews.com is attached as follows:

Chrome:118.0.5993.70 for Mac and Linux

Chrome:118.0.5993.70 and 118.0.5993.71 for Windows

Chrome Extended:118.0.5993.70 for Mac

Chrome Extended:118.0.5993.71 for Windows

Chrome:118.0.5993.65 for Android

According to the official update log, Chrome stable Edition 118 mainly fixes 20 security vulnerabilities, with a total of 14 vulnerabilities listed on the page, and six that have not yet been disclosed.

Among the security vulnerabilities fixed this time, one of the most noteworthy vulnerabilities is tracking number CVE-2023-5218, which exists in Site Isolation and is a use after free vulnerability, while the other publicly disclosed vulnerabilities are at "medium risk" and "low risk" levels.

The biggest highlight of Chrome 118 is its support for Encrypted Client Hello, which Google began testing in the 2022 version of Chrome Canary, which protects domain names from being leaked to network operators when users open websites and services in browsers. As a result, it increases privacy because network operators such as ISP no longer know which sites users visit.

Another security feature enables Enhanced Safe Browsing in Chrome to disable extensions that are not installed from Chrome Web Store remotely.

Another enhanced secure browsing change improves deep scanning. Chrome 118 users may now be prompted to provide a password for the archived file to allow secure browsing to analyze it.
