Google has this week an update for Chrome for Android rolled out, which the Internet giant a vulnerability that was closed by a leak in OpenSSL occur. By that bug a man-in-the-middle attack was possible.

The attack only worked if the victim also uses OpenSSL and could only be implemented if both the server and the client vulnerable for the bug. Except users of the Android version of Chrome did those of other browsers including Chrome desktop version, nothing to fear. Namely that browsers use SSL / TLS library other than OpenSSL. In the latest Chrome version except bugfixes also incorporated new features that are available for the mobile browser for several weeks. This allows users to Chrome 35 videos cast to Chrome Cast. During the test period, missing a few months back while still YouTube support, but it is not clear whether Google has added this. The latest Android version of Chrome also shows each time a tab is closed, a button at the screen that closing the tab can be undone. This does Google respond to users who sometimes accidentally close a tab. In the desktop versions of browsers such as Chrome and Firefox this functionality has been around longer. There is better support for HTML5 video built. These videos can now separate buttons also fullscreen and with subtitles to play
Update, 12:00 am -. At first it seemed that the cast to Cast Chrome is new, but this proved thanks to the feedback does not have to be. The article has been written and now opens with the OpenSSL bug, which Google rolled out a bug fix last weekend.
