According to Google, the development version Dev Release: 0.3.154.6 addresses the vulnerability.
Reminder: Beta software should not be used in a production environment.

I hesitate to use even upgraded versions of Chrome, since my last experience using it (first version) left my computer compromised; have they fixed the security issues beyond all doubt?
Hi, movie buff.
Personally, I prefer not to use beta software on my computer. Between Firefox and IE, I am quite happy with the browsers I have.
The currently open issues with Google Chrome (Beta) can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list
The releases are here: http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/
Note, however, the difference between a Dev Release and a Beta Release. Compare the Dev Releases to the Firefox Nightly Builds.
