Another security flaw with Chrome has been reported. Thomas Claburn noted:
“…Vietnamese security company Bach Khoa Internet Security (BKIS) has found a flaw in Google Chrome 0.2.149.27 and posted details on its Web site. The company says the problem is a critical buffer-overflow vulnerability that could allow a hacker to perform a remote attack and take complete control of the affected system.”

That Google’s Chrome has security issues is not surprising. Google has been careful to identify this release as a ‘beta’. As such, it is being field tested by millions of users. What the security community is watching is how Google responds to the flaws and glitches. With this new product, attitude and responsiveness will count.

Hopefully google will respond quickly. They don’t want to tarnish their brand. It had been voted the most recognised brand in the UK or one of, I’m not sure. It is v0.2 and like you said it is a beta. It can only get better, after all Google as a business relies on the browser. I’m sure they will fix it soon.
