Ungoogled Chromium has released a new Linux build, version 155.0.8059.84-1, which includes ten security fixes from Google's Chrome release, specifically addressing a critical vulnerability with a CVSS score of 9.8. This community fork removes Google's web-service dependencies while still patching the same vulnerabilities found in Chromium, making it a suitable choice for privacy-focused users who want to avoid Google telemetry. The project, which started in 2015, relies on a patch-and-config pipeline to maintain its privacy features, although users may need to manually adjust settings for optimal privacy. The latest version can be downloaded from various sources, including Flathub and GitHub, offering a straightforward option for Linux users seeking an updated browser without Google integration
Ungoogled Chromium 155.0.8059.84-1 Releases for Linux with Chrome's 10 Security Fixes
Ungoogled Chromium, the community fork that strips Chromium of Google's web-service dependencies, published a new Linux build (155.0.8059.84-1) on 16 October 2026. The release tracks Google's Chrome Stable 155.0.8059.84, carrying the ten security fixes that patch a critical Prerender use-after-free (CVE-2026-110922) worth a 9.8 CVSS score. Because the fork shares Chromium's code, Linux users get those same vulnerabilities patched while keeping Google telemetry and hard-coded server calls removed. It's not a deep-security fork by design, so its safety largely rides on upstream fixes, but it's a low-effort way for privacy-focused users to stay current without phoning home.
