The researcher has been awarded a bug bounty of $55,000 for responsible disclosure.<\/p>\n<p>As is customary in these cases, Google acknowledged that an &#8220;exploit for CVE-2026-11645 exists in the wild,&#8221; but stopped short of sharing additional specifics to ensure that a majority of the users are updated with a fix and to prevent further exploitation.<\/p>\n<p>With the latest development, Google has addressed a total of five actively exploited Chrome zero-days since the start of the year. This includes CVE-2026-2441, CVE-2026-3909, CVE-2026-3910, and CVE-2026-5281.<\/p>\n<p>For optimal protection, users are advised to update their Chrome browser to versions 149.0.7827.102\/.103 for Windows and Apple macOS, and 149.0.7827.102 for Linux.
