Google has released 108.0.5359.94 which includes a high priority security update. Google is aware that an exploit for CVE-2022-4262 exists in the wild.

Waiting on CEF to update, hopefully a build will be available by end of week.

No sign of a CEF update yet unfortunately.

CEF has updated in commit https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/commits/a98cd4cdc0fdc49b6c38ba10cec800922745441e

xUnit tests were originally failing because of upstream issue https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/issues/3434/cef-108-creates-web-data-and-web-data

Running from a read-only folder (e.g. Program Files) without specifying a CachePath is resulting in a crash. Error message in logs will look like:

[0103/131643.152:WARNING:alloy_constrained_window_views_client.cc(63)] No likely focused browser

Workarounds:

• Set CachePath
• Run application from a writable folder
• Revert to version 107 (not recommended)

Issue needs to be fixed in CEF.
