The update will roll out gradually over the coming days and weeks.
Users can review the complete list of code changes in the Chromium Log.
The table below summarizes the current Stable channel builds by operating system and their rollout status:
| Platform | Stable Version | Rollout Status |
|---|---|---|
| Windows | 139.0.7258.154 / .155 | Phased deployment |
| Mac | 139.0.7258.154 / .155 | Phased deployment |
| Linux | 139.0.7258.154 | Phased deployment |
Users on all platforms should ensure their browsers update automatically; manual updates can be triggered via Help → About Google Chrome.
This Stable release includes one critical security fix.
Due to standard practices aimed at preventing exploit attempts before users are protected, detailed bug descriptions and direct patch links remain restricted until the majority of users have received the update.
The lone fix in this cycle addresses a high-severity Use-after-free vulnerability within the ANGLE graphics library:
The ANGLE library translates OpenGL ES calls to native APIs on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
A use-after-free flaw in its memory management could enable remote code execution if a malicious web page crafts specific GPU commands.
Google credits the external research team, Google Big Slee, for reporting this issue responsibly.
In addition to the ANGLE fix, Google extends its thanks to all security researchers and community contributors who participated in the development cycle.
Their combined efforts help to maintain Chrome’s robust security posture and prevent vulnerabilities from reaching end users.
Users interested in previewing upcoming features can join the Dev channel by following instructions on the Chromium Developers site.
