I'm getting the same error here, started this morning after update. OS was a recent install of Mint Cinnamon 18.2 with Oibaf graphics PPA and some theming, so I re-installed to ensure it wasn't due to my changes. Same error on a totally stock, fresh install.
As reported by OP, deleting Chromium config (mv /home/user/.config/chromium /home/user/.config/chromium.bak) allows the browser to run once but will crash after skipping Google login.
