Good. Maybe it doesn't affect Chromium. I know Debian is pretty good at getting security updates through quickly.

Re: Update Google Chrome Immediately to Patch a High Severity Vulnerability
I get the feeling that it does affect Chromium, since it's in code that is shared with Chrome.
Re: Update Google Chrome Immediately to Patch a High Severity Vulnerability
I would have thought so too unless it is tied to Google's own tracking software which would be missing in Chromium. Maybe Google Analytics Javascript? I don't think they have said exactly what is compromised yet.
Re: Update Google Chrome Immediately to Patch a High Severity Vulnerability
They aren't saying exactly what it is yet, which IMO is evidence that Chromium and derivatives are indeed still vulnerable.
Re: Update Google Chrome Immediately to Patch a High Severity Vulnerability
There is a newer Chromium out now than even Sid or Ubuntu have packaged yet...I can get it by using the get-orig-source command in the debian/rules file, but don't know if it can be packaged on Stretch, though there are some hints in the rules file that they are trying to make that as easy as possible.

Will keep an eye on that. Looks like Arch has 67 and 68 is in the dev channel.Stevo wrote: ↑Fri Jun 08, 2018 1:54 pm There is a newer Chromium out now than even Sid or Ubuntu have packaged yet...I can get it by using the get-orig-source command in the debian/rules file, but don't know if it can be packaged on Stretch, though there are some hints in the rules file that they are trying to make that as easy as possible.
