Red Hat's statement

Red Hat Product Security rates the severity of this flaw as determined by the Google Chrome Security Advisory.

Red Hat's mitigation

Avoid visiting untrusted websites or processing untrusted HTML content within chromium-browser. Ensure that the browser runs with its default operating system sandboxing mechanisms enabled, and do not execute the browser in unconfined or privileged modes that disable process isolation.

Caveats: Operational controls that rely on user discretion do not eliminate the underlying vulnerability and cannot guarantee protection if untrusted web pages are loaded.
