Description Rohit Keshri 2024-05-15 10:31:02 UTC
Upstream just released a security fix
https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2024/05/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_13.html

As Google is aware that an exploit exists in the wild, I submit update even if Chromium 125 package update should be ready by next week.
