This release fixes many security vulnerabilities. Upgrade as soon as possible.
Changes and updates
- Update your Tor browser to 10.0.5.
Tor Browser 10.0.5 fixes the critical vulnerability discovered last week in the JavaScript engine.
- Update Thunderbird from 68.12 to 78.4.2.
Thunderbird 78 replaces the Enigmail extension with built-in support for OpenPGP encryption.
If you used Enigmail before Tails 4.13, follow our instructions to migrate from Enigmail to Thunderbird 78.
- Add a button to restart Tails at the end of creating persistent storage.
- Include only translations for the languages ??available in the welcome screen. This reduces the download size by 5%.
- The root directory of the persistent storage should be read only by the root user.
- Can Dotfiles users in persistent storage choose Places? Dotfiles to open the / live / persistence / TailsData_unlocked / dotfiles folder in the Files browser.
- Activate TCP timestamps. This could increase the stability of slower internet connections.
Resolved issues:
- Fix the Tails Installer Upgrade button when running Croatian, Danish, French, Hebrew, Macedonian, Simplified Chinese and Turkish.
- Allows you to increase the sound volume over 100%.
Tails 4.14 is scheduled for December 15.
