The previous update for chromium released as DSA 4714-2 contained a flaw in
the service worker implementation.  This problem causes the browser to crash

that correct this issue.

For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in
version 83.0.4103.116-1~deb10u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your chromium packages.
