Google Chrome multiple vulnerabilities - October 10(Linux). Successful exploitation could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, cause denial-of-service, carry out spoofing attacks, gain access to sensitive information, and bypass intended security restrictions due to multiple vulnerabilities in Google Chrome version prior to 7.0.517.41 on Linux. The flaws include errors related to autofill/autocomplete, memory corruption, URL spoofing, pop-up blocker bypass, shutdown with 'Web Sockets', bad construction of 'PATH' variable, animated 'GIFs', failure to sandbox worker processes on Linux, and stale elements in an element map. Users should upgrade to Google Chrome 7.0.517.41 or later
