Google Chrome users urged to install vital update as second warning issued

Google Chrome users have been issued a second warning to update the browser following a release of a vicious bug into the system.

Earlier this week, the tech giant announced it had discovered a software flaw that increases the risk of cyber attacks with a serious zero-day rating. The term 'zero-day' means that the developer has only just learned of a flaw that is already known and being actively used by cyber crooks to access important personal information.

Now, a second glitch has been found and users of the browser need to check that they have the most up to date version to stay safe online. Google had previously rushed to release a fix for the first flaw and has since issued a second update that's repairing the new error.
