This is the only issue I have with Chromium forks, they are usually behind the curve on security fixes and this one looks like a serious security hole.

Google has patched a high-risk vulnerability in its Chrome browser that allows an attacker to escape the Chrome sandbox.......................

Slimjet is pretty quick in updating in line with chrome tbh unlike as you mention other forks.

I've moved to Chromium stable till Slimjet updates to 43.0.2357.65 or newer only because sandbox escape is risky.

It doesn't say whether that was for all OS's and I run linux but just being safe.
