"Chromium.app is damaged and can't be opened" codesigning issue

"Chromium.app is damaged and can't be opened" codesigning issue

Downloading the latest FreeSMUG Chromium build (44.0.2403.107) and trying to run it, I'm getting an error which says "Chromium.app is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash."

It looks like it's a codesigning problem. Chromium 44.0.2403.107 says:

$ codesign -dvvv /Volumes/Chromium\ OS\ X\ 44.0.2403.107/Chromium.app

Whereas the previous version Chromium 44.0.2403.89 says
