Hi ​@Glen H 5565 

 

No, the latest LTS channel is not currently patched for cve-2026-5281 (see here).

 

To remediate this, you have two primary options:

  1. Switch to the Stable Channel: Move critical devices to the Stable channel, which is currently on version 146 or higher.

  2. Wait for an LTS "Backport": Keep an eye on the Chrome Releases Blog for an "LTS Channel Update" specifically mentioning CVE-2026-5281.

 

Hope this helps,
