Multiple Chinese hacking groups seen using identical Chrome zero-day exploit

At least four China-linked cyber-espionage groups exploited a Google Chrome vulnerability discovered in August, according to researchers. The identical zero-day exploit was deployed across multiple threat actors, indicating shared access to the same capability or coordinated development.

Why it matters: Organizations running unpatched Chrome instances face compromise by multiple state-sponsored groups; practitioners should verify Chrome is fully updated and monitor for indicators of compromise from these threat actors.
