Google has updated their Chrome web-browser with a variety of new features and improvements as part of their v32 stable release.

Google Chrome 32 features new tab indicators for sound / webcam / casting, automatic blocking of known malware files, a number of new apps and extension APIs, and numerous "under the hood" changes that promise to provide better stability and performance.

Google Chrome 32 also features 11 security fixes for which Google gave out thousands of dollars -- including one $5000 bug relating to an umprompted sync with an attacker's Google account. Several security bugs were also found using the Address Sanitizer found in modern versions of the LLVM and Clang compilers.

More details on the Chrome 32 stable release can be found via the Google Chrome release blog.
