The Chrome team is delighted to announce the promotion of Chrome 50 to the stable channel for Windows, Mac and Linux.
 Chrome 50.0.2661.75 contains a number of fixes and improvements -- a list of changes is available in the log. Watch out for upcoming Chrome and Chromium blog posts about new features and big efforts delivered in 50.
 Security Fixes and Rewards
 Note: Access to bug details and links may be kept restricted until a majority of users are updated with a fix. We will also retain restrictions if the bug exists in a third party library that other projects similarly depend on, but haven’t yet fixed.
 This update includes 20 security fixes. Below, we highlight fixes that were contributed by external researchers. Please see the Chromium security page for more information.

have gone through the reward panel.
 As usual, our ongoing internal security work was responsible for a wide range of fixes:

CVE-2016-1659 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1659):
  Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75
  allow attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other impact
  via unknown vectors.

CVE-2016-1658 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1658):
  The Extensions subsystem in Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75 incorrectly
  relies on GetOrigin method calls for origin comparisons, which allows remote
  attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and obtain sensitive information
  via a crafted extension.

CVE-2016-1657 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1657):
  The WebContentsImpl::FocusLocationBarByDefault function in
  content/browser/web_contents/web_contents_impl.cc in Google Chrome before
  50.0.2661.75 mishandles focus for certain about:blank pages, which allows
  remote attackers to spoof the address bar via a crafted URL.

CVE-2016-1656 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1656):
  The download implementation in Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75 on Android
  allows remote attackers to bypass intended pathname restrictions via
  unspecified vectors.

CVE-2016-1655 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1655):
  Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75 does not properly consider that frame
  removal may occur during callback execution, which allows remote attackers
  to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified
  other impact via a crafted extension.

CVE-2016-1654 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1654):
  The media subsystem in Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75 does not initialize
  an unspecified data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a
  denial of service (invalid read operation) via unknown vectors.

CVE-2016-1653 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1653):
  The LoadBuffer implementation in Google V8, as used in Google Chrome before
  50.0.2661.75, mishandles data types, which allows remote attackers to cause
  a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted
  JavaScript code that triggers an out-of-bounds write operation, related to
  compiler/pipeline.cc and compiler/simplified-lowering.cc.

CVE-2016-1652 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1652):
  Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the
  ModuleSystem::RequireForJsInner function in
  extensions/renderer/module_system.cc in the Extensions subsystem in Google
  Chrome before 50.0.2661.75 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web
  script or HTML via a crafted web site, aka "Universal XSS (UXSS)."

CVE-2016-1651 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-1651):
  fxcodec/codec/fx_codec_jpx_opj.cpp in PDFium, as used in Google Chrome
  before 50.0.2661.75, does not properly implement the sycc420_to_rgb and
  sycc422_to_rgb functions, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive
  information from process memory or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds
  read) via crafted JPEG 2000 data in a PDF document.
