  - Type Confusion in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 144.0.7559.132 allowed a remote attacker to potentially
    exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2026-1862)

  - Heap buffer overflow in libvpx in Google Chrome prior to 144.0.7559.132 allowed a remote attacker to
    potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)
    (CVE-2026-1861)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
