LUCAMEMicrosoft has disclosed a vulnerability in Chromium tracked as CVE-2026-78892. It affects Chromoting, which is the technology behind Chrome Remote Desktop. The flaw involves incorrect authorisation handling, meaning an attacker could potentially gain access they shouldn't have. Details are limited at this stage, but the advisory has been published and a fix is expected through the normal Chromium update process.
What this means for your business
If your staff use Chrome Remote Desktop to access office machines or help colleagues remotely, this is worth paying attention to. Keep Chrome updated on all devices, as the fix will come through automatically once Google releases a patched version. If you're unsure whether Chrome Remote Desktop is in use on your network, it's worth checking, since remote access tools that aren't actively managed are a common weak point.
