A historical listing can be found by browsing here: http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/search/label/Stable%20updates + or see here: http://www.chromium.org/Home/chromium-security For this reason, users should not be allowed to install chromium 18. Please make this happen by either updating the chromium-browser package, or removing it from the archive (or some other way that I don't know about). Additionally, there is a collection of ppas (https://launchpad.net /~chromium-daily) for chromium that all have version 18. Those should have action taken as well, either by disabling them, removing the the version 18 binary, posting notices warning away users, or once again, some other way that I don't know about. There are two ways that I know of that users can acquire an updated and secure version of chromium: The ppa listed here: https://launchpad.net/~a-v-shkop or by using Google's google-chrome package.
