According to a report in the US business magazine Forbes, Google has made a blog post about 'Zero Day'. According to the post, the 12th and 13th errors of Chrome have been found this year. These are capable of attacking Windows, MacOS and Linux operating systems.
Hackers may have known this before Google came up with the solution. Which is why Chrome users are at risk. Google has not disclosed any additional information regarding the errors in accordance with its own protocol.
