Tor 0.4.8.11 is released.

It's in Tor Browser 13.0.14.

https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/tor/-/raw/tor-0.4.8.11/ChangeLog

Changes in version 0.4.8.11 - 2024-04-10
  This is a minor release mostly to upgrade the fallbackdir list. Worth noting
  also that directory authority running this version will now automatically
  reject relays running the end of life 0.4.7.x version.

  o Minor feature (authority):
    - Reject 0.4.7.x series at the authority level. Closes ticket 40896.

  o Minor feature (dirauth, tor26):
    - New IP address and keys.

  o Minor feature (directory authority):
    - Allow BandwidthFiles "node_id" KeyValue without the dollar sign at
      the start of the hexdigit, in order to easier database queries
      combining Tor documents in which the relays fingerprint does not
      include it. Fixes bug 40891; bugfix on 0.4.7 (all supported
      versions of Tor).

  o Minor features (fallbackdir):
    - Regenerate fallback directories generated on April 10, 2024.

  o Minor features (geoip data):
    - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as
      retrieved on 2024/04/10.

  o Minor bugfixes (directory authorities):
    - Add a warning when publishing a vote or signatures to another
      directory authority fails. Fixes bug 40910; bugfix
      on 0.2.0.3-alpha.

News |heise: Netzsperren umgehen: Tor Browser 11.5 erhält Verbindungs-Automatik

Version 11.5 des Anonymisierungs-Browsers Tor umgeht Netzsperren mit nur einem Klick und vereinfacht das Verwalten von Bridges ins Tor-Netz.

Das Tor Project hat eine neue Hauptversion seines gleichnamigen, auf Privatsphäre ausgerichteten Browsers veröffentlicht. Der Tor Browser 11.5 enthält ein Werkzeug, mit dem sich etwa landesweite Sperren des Tor-Netzes leicht umgehen lassen sollen. Außerdem sind verschlüsselte Verbindungen per integriertem HTTPS-Only-Modus nun standardmäßig eingeschaltet und die Netzwerk-Einstellungen wurden überarbeitet und vereinfacht. Das schildert das Tor Project in einem Blogbeitrag zur Freigabe der neuen Browser-Version. Mit dem Tor Browser können Nutzer anonym im Web surfen und ihre Spuren durch das dahinter stehende Anonymisierungsnetzwerk Tor verwischen lassen... (weiter)

Meine Meinung: Gut das die Entwicklung weiter geht und in meinen Augen auch in eine richtige Richtung. Allerdings denke ich das es im Tor Netzwerk noch Diskussionsforen etc. bräuchte die leicht zugänglich sind und in denen es nicht wie meist nur um Drogen, Sex, Rechte Inhalte etc. geht.

Serious security vulnerability in Tails 5.0

Tor Browser in Tails 5.0 and earlier is unsafe to use for sensitive information.

The problem is that Tails 5.0 uses version 11.0.11 of the Tor Browser. This is based on a version of Firefox that contains vulnerabilities in its JavaScript interpreter. The current version of the Tor Browser is 11.0.13, and this new version is not vulnerable to the attacks that work against version 11.0.11 and earlier. If you use the Tor Browser with other OSes (not Tails), you should check to see that you have the newest version.

If you keep JavaScript disabled this vulnerability does not affect you. The Tor Browser makes it very easy to disable JavaScript. This problem will also not affect you if you don't enter any sensitive information into web sites.

If you start Tails today, Tails itself will warn you about this. Oddly the Tails home page has no such warning.

Here is the page about the vulnerability. https://tails.boum.org/security/prototype_pollution/

Here is the Tails home page. https://tails.boum.org/

The recommendation from Tails is that you don't use the Tor Browser in Tails until the next version of Tails is released. This should be version 5.1 and it should be released on 31 May 2022.
