On February 18, 2026, Google released a new stability channel update for Chrome on desktop, bringing the Chrome version to 145.0.7632.109/110 on Windows and Mac, and 144.0.7559.109 on Linux, with a gradual rollout expected to continue over the coming days and weeks.

The February 18 desktop release fixed three additional vulnerabilities, independent of CVE-2026-2441:

  • CVE-2026-2649 (High): Integer overflow in V8

Google also updated the Extended Stability Channel for Windows and Mac to version 144.0.7559.220 on the same date, with a similar gradual rollout.

On the mobile side, Google has also released Chrome 145 updates for both Android and iOS:

  • Android: Chrome 145 (145.0.7632.109) via Google Play Store
  • iOS: Chrome Stable 145 (145.0.7632.108) via App Store

Google indicated that Android updates contain the same security fixes found in desktop versions, unless otherwise noted.
