-
Locate your Chrome version numberOpen Google Chrome, click the three-dot menu (top right), select Help, then select About Google Chrome. The version number is displayed on that page.Affected if Unable to retrieve version information
-
Compare your version to the fixNote your installed version number (e.g., 137.0.7151.40) and compare it numerically to 137.0.7151.55. The first three numbers (137.0.7151) are the major version; if they match, compare the final number after the last dot.Affected if Your version is any build earlier than 137.0.7151.55 (e.g., 137.0.7151.40, 136.0.7151.55, or any 136.x/135.x release)

This is enabled by default in standard Chrome installations - no special configuration needs to be checked.Affected if Using Chrome with the standard tab interface (default configuration)
You are affected if your installed Chrome version is lower than 137.0.7151.55 and you use the standard Tab Strip UI (the default tab bar in Chrome).
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
