I guided Claude to write an SPA to make the BATFE Annual Firearms Manufacturers And Export Report (AFMER) data easier to explore.

I have the raw data in https://github.com/ryjones/AFMER . I've been collecting the raw data since 2005 or 2006 as it became available.

I started grabbing the data years ago to interrogate claims firearms manufacturers were making in public about sales volumes against the data the BATFE publishes.

After helping track fires for years, Watch Duty is aiming to become your disaster go-to with flood coverage straight from the front lines.

Anthropic's Mythos is accelerating vulnerability discovery to machine speed, forcing the bug bounty industry and offensive security teams to adapt to a future where finding flaws is no longer the hard part.

Google has issued updates for the Chrome browser, patching a number of high‑severity vulnerabilities. 

The update includes fixes for 74 vulnerabilities, including one that is being actively exploited in the wild.

The stable channel has been updated to 149.0.7827.102/.103 for Windows/Mac, and 149.0.7827.102 for Linux, which will roll out over the coming weeks.

How to update Chrome

If you don’t want to wait for the rollout to reach you, manually updating is easy.

The easiest option is to allow Chrome to update automatically. But you can end up lagging behind on updates if you never close your browser or if something goes wrong, such as an extension preventing the update.

To update manually, click the More menu (three dots), then go to Settings > About Chrome. If an update is available, Chrome will start downloading it automatically. Restart Chrome to complete the update, and you’ll be protected against these vulnerabilities.

Chrome 149.0.7827.102/103 is up to date on Windows and Mac

You can also find step-by-step instructions in our guide to how to update Chrome on every operating system.

Technical details

The vulnerability that Google says is being exploited in the wild is tracked as CVE-2026-11645.

Google describes it as:

“Out of bounds read and write in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.103 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page.”

This means this flaw was found in Chrome’s V8 engine—the part of Chrome (and other Chromium-based browsers) that runs JavaScript.

Such a flaw allows a program to read or write outside the memory boundaries it is supposed to use, enabling attackers to manipulate other areas of memory allocated to more critical functions. Attackers may be able to place malicious code in memory and trick the system into running it.

In this case, the vulnerability could be triggered when V8 processes specially crafted HTML content, such as a malicious website.

The phrase “inside a sandbox” means the malicious code would run in a restricted, sealed-off environment rather than directly on your whole computer. An attacker’s code is constrained to the browser, which lowers the impact compared with code running outside the sandbox. However, attackers often chain multiple vulnerabilities together to achieve more serious compromises. So, the phrase is a security limiter, not a reassurance that the bug is harmless.

The update also includes some new features, like the ability to sign PDF forms without using an extension.

Stop threats before they can do any harm.

Malwarebytes Browser Guard blocks phishing pages and malicious sites automatically. Free, one click to install. Add it to your browser →

These are the best sci-fi programs Apple has to offer.

The authentication bypass vulnerability allows attackers to establish VPN connections without a valid password.
