You can use Chromium from the Debian buster repository. For example, if your Ubuntu release is Eoan (19.10):
Remove Ubuntu chromium packages:
sudo apt remove chromium-browser chromium-browser-l10n chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
Add Debian "buster" repository. Create a file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list with the following content:
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main
Add the Debian signing keys:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys DCC9EFBF77E11517 sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 648ACFD622F3D138 sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys AA8E81B4331F7F50 sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 112695A0E562B32A
Configure apt pinning. Create a file /etc/apt/preferences.d/chromium.pref with the following content:
# Note: 2 blank lines are required between entries
Package: *
Pin: release a=eoan
Pin-Priority: 500
Package: *
Pin: origin "deb.debian.org"
Pin-Priority: 300
# Pattern includes 'chromium', 'chromium-browser' and similarly
# named dependencies:
Package: chromium*
Pin: origin "deb.debian.org"
Pin-Priority: 700
Install Chromium again
sudo apt update sudo apt install chromium
This should install the latest chromium from the debian-security repository and look like this:
$ sudo apt install chromium

As you can see, only Chromium related packages are fetched from the Debian repository, but all others like libminizip1 still come from your Ubuntu repository.
