electron is vulnerable to Memory Corruption

High Risk
This Affects:
electronTL;DR
This patch release rebases the embedded Chromium-family stack with a batch of security cherry-picks called out as high-severity fixes from the Chrome stable train used for the backport. Concrete patches tighten Blink string views to use bounds-checked subspans instead of deriving raw pointers from unchecked offsets, address integer overflow and buffer sizing mistakes in ANGLE paths, and fix libwebm mux bookkeeping patterns consistent with use-after-free or double-free classes of bugs, alongside additional V8 and Chromium fixes enumerated in the backport pull request. Malicious web content that reaches the compromised engine surface could leverage memory corruption to breach confidentiality or integrity of the application process.
