Bug Description

Security fixes from 37.0.2062.94 and earlier (some of them were classified as "Critical" severity by the Chromium development team, i.e. "can lead to remote code execution outside of the sandbox") should be either backported to the respective Chromium versions in all current desktop-supported releases of Ubuntu, or the repositories should be updated to include the new version of Chromium.
