After the release of Google Chrome 105, many other manufacturers of Chromium-based browsers followed suit and also provided updates to fix several vulnerabilities.
On August 30, Google released the new major version 105 of its Chrome browser. In it, Google developers
24 vulnerabilities fixed
, including one vulnerability (CVE-2022-3038) classified as critical. Many manufacturers of Chromium-based browsers have now followed suit and updated their software. So far these are Brave, Microsoft (Edge), and Vivaldi. With Opera, it takes a little longer again.
Vivaldi
It was again the fastest response and released an update to version 5.4.2753.45 on August 31st. However, this is based on Chromium version 104.0.5112.112 of the Extended Stable Channel.

opera
As is often the case, take your time. The new Opera version 90.0.4480.80 as of September 1st still has Chromium 104.0.5112.102 as of August 16th. Opera 91 based on Chromium 105 is still in beta testing stage.
