Tor Urgent: Release 0.4.5.14, 0.4.6.12 and 0.4.7.10
David Goulet - Fri Aug 12 15:00:54 UTC 2022
Greetings,
We had to do an emergency release due to an IPFire GeoIP database bug they informed us about.
Announcement: https://forum.torproject.net/t/urgent-stable-release-0-4-5-14-0-4-6-12-and-0-4-7-10/4270
Dear packagers, sorry about the inconvenience but we had no choice. ChangeLog below.
Cheers! David
Changes in version 0.4.7.10 - 2022-08-12 This version updates the geoip cache that we generate from IPFire location database to use the August 9th, 2022 one. Everyone MUST update to this latest release else circuit path selection and relay metrics are badly affected.
o Major bugfixes (geoip data):
- IPFire informed us on August 12th that databases generated after
(including) August 10th did not have proper ARIN network allocations. We
are updating the database to use the one generated on August 9th, 2022.
Fixes bug 40658; bugfix on 0.4.7.9.
