While Chris is right, I expect our policy for security updates will
probably not make you too happy.

We provide three "channels" of Google Chrome, which are correspond
roughly to something like a "stable", "master", and "next" branch in
other projects.  These channels are aggressively autoupdated with fixes
(security and otherwise) on Win/Mac such that versions other than the
newest on each channel are effectively lost in the noise.  This means we
have a good record for getting fixes quickly out, but it also means that
we do not provide security fixes for any non-current releases.

You can see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome#Release_history
for the release history of our stable releases.  With each such release,
security fixes for older major versions are immediately stopped.  I
understand that Ubuntu tries to provide long term support for some
Ubuntu releases, and that this may be incompatible with our release
process.  I don't have any good answer for you.
