Chrome 141 and Firefox 143 Patches Fix High-Severity Vulnerabilities

High-severity flaws were patched in Chrome’s WebGPU and Video components, and in Firefox’s Graphics and JavaScript Engine components.

Chrome and Firefox vulnerabilities

Google and Mozilla this week released Chrome and Firefox browser updates that address multiple high-severity vulnerabilities.

Google promoted Chrome 141 to the stable channel with 21 security fixes, including 12 for security defects reported by external researchers, who earned a total of $50,000 for their findings.

Two of the externally reported bugs, tracked as CVE-2025-11205 and CVE-2025-11206, are high-severity heap buffer overflow issues impacting Chrome’s WebGPU and Video components.

Google says it handed out a $25,000 bug bounty reward for the WebGPU flaw, which was reported by Atte Kettunen of OUSPG in early September.

Chrome 141 also resolves eight medium-severity vulnerabilities, including side-channel information leakage issues in Storage and Tab, inappropriate implementation bugs in Media and Omnibox, an out-of-bounds read flaw in Media, and an off-by-one error in the V8 JavaScript engine.

The remaining two security holes reported by external researchers are low-severity issues affecting Chrome’s Storage component and the V8 engine.

The latest Chrome iteration is rolling out as version 141.0.7390.54 for Linux and as versions 141.0.7390.54/55 for Windows and macOS. The patches were also included in Chrome 141.0.7390.43 for Android.

Mozilla released Firefox 143.0.3 this week with fixes for two high-severity defects in the Graphics and JavaScript Engine components.

The Graphics flaw, tracked as CVE-2025-11152, is an integer overflow issue that could lead to sandbox escape. The JavaScript Engine weakness, tracked as CVE-2025-11153, is described as a JIT miscompilation.

Neither Google nor Mozilla mention any of these vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild, but users are advised to update their browsers as soon as possible.
