Comment

The change only bumps the package version in .SRCINFO from one Chromium snapshot release to another. No source URLs, checksums, build commands, install scripts, or packaging logic are altered in the provided diff, so there is no new security-relevant behavior to assess from this change alone. The package remains a prebuilt binary snapshot package, but this specific update does not introduce additional risk beyond the existing package model.

Comment

The change only bumps the pinned Chromium snapshot and matching chromedriver snapshot in .SRCINFO from one upstream Google-hosted HTTPS snapshot revision to a newer one. There are no new sources, no build-time execution changes, no install scripts, and no packaging metadata changes beyond the versioned snapshot filenames/URLs. This is a routine upstream version update with no obvious security red flags in the diff provided.

Comment

This change only bumps the Chromium snapshot version string in PKGBUILD. No new sources, build steps, install scripts, permissions, or packaging logic are introduced by the diff, so there is no evident security impact from the change itself. The usual supply-chain concerns for a -bin snapshot package remain unchanged, but they are not worsened by this commit.
