Upgrade chromium to version 24.0.1312.56 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Restriction Bypass. Google Chrome before 24.0.1312.52 on Mac OS X does not use an appropriate sandboxing approach for worker processes, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via unspecified vectors.
