Chrome and Firefox patch security flaws

Google recently announced a zero-day vulnerability of the Chrome browser.
Google quickly released an update that has been tested.

One of these changes is the deprecation of support for obsolete TLS 1.0 and 1.1 protocols with a view to removing support completely by Chrome 81, scheduled for early next year (the same will apply to Firefox, Microsoft Edge and Apple’s Safari). This will affect developers rather than users who will still be able to connect to the tiny number of sites using TLS 1.0/1.1 for another year. (nakedsecurity.sophos.com)

Solution: Update Google Chrome and FireFox to the latest version
