Since M81 won't receive any updates anymore and there are known vulnerabilities we should mark it as insecure so that users are aware of the risks. Updating Chromium to M83 is unfortunately too challenging for 19.09, but as of today we've already covered the one month period of security updates for "oldstable" and both 20.03 and nixos-unstable contain recent versions (i.e. users should either update to the current stable release or install Chromium from a different channel). nixos-unstable PR for M83: NixOS#88206
