Google has yes updated the Chrome browser to version 89.0.4389.114 on March 31, 2021 for Linux, macOS and Windows, to fix vulnerabilities(see Google Chrome 89.0.4389.114 fixes 8 vulnerabilities). Now Microsoft is following with the Edge 89.0.774.68 update, though the April 1, 2020. The release notes don't mention any closed vulnerabilities but refer to the Security Update Guide, though I find its format very confusing.
I've mentioned the security fixes in the Chrome blog post. The browser should update automatically. However, I have received the following e-mail with security information from Microsoft:
