What is CVE-2022-2856 in Chrome?

It's a high-severity flaw in Chrome's Intents feature on Android, allowing arbitrary code execution via bad input validation. Google patched it in the latest stable update.

Is Chrome safe after the fifth zero-day patch?

Safer, yes — if updated. But with five exploits this year, stay vigilant; auto-updates are key, especially on enterprise fleets.

Why so many Chrome zero-days in 2022?

Chrome's massive market share draws attackers. Complex features like V8 and Intents create more entry points than slimmer rivals like Firefox.
