Details

Chromium recently fixed an RCE zero-day which is actively being exploited in the wild: https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2019/03/06/serious-chrome-zero-day-google-says-update-right-this-minute/

QtWebEngine fixed it for Qt 5.12.2 here: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/255162/ - given how serious the issue is, it probably makes sense to add it to the package (it applies cleanly to .1).

I attached a patch to the PKGBUILD.
