The IDN vulnerability was fixed by Google in Chrome 58.

Why have you got such an old version of Chrome?

Thank you. That gives me a strong reason to update.

To answer your question, (1) it's pretty arduous to install Chrome from the AUR, and (2) I am wary of Google removing useful functionality from Chrome.
