Google Chrome 143 End of Life Date
Google Chrome 143 end-of-life date, support status, and CVE risk. Data reconciled from official vendor documentation and endoflife.date at every build; the source of each date is on the product page.
Google Chrome 143 was released on December 2, 2025 and support ended on January 13, 2026 — a supported lifespan of 42 days, in line with the 42 days median for Google Chrome releases. It has been without security patches for 8 months. 10 newer Google Chrome releases have shipped since.
What does Google Chrome 143 end of life mean?
When Google Chrome 143 reaches end of life, the maintainers stop issuing security patches for this version. CVEs discovered after the EOL date are publicly disclosed on the National Vulnerability Database with no patch available. Exploit code frequently appears on GitHub within days of disclosure.
The CVE blind spot: A CVE-based scan does not show the ongoing accumulation of unpatched vulnerabilities in EOL software versions. Some scanners flag unsupported versions of common products, but coverage varies, and none of them give you the date in advance. Running Google Chrome 143 past its EOL date creates a growing attack surface that a clean scan result does not rule out.
Migrate to a supported version or implement compensating controls — network segmentation, enhanced monitoring, restricted access — while migration is underway.
