This release is an emergency release to fix important security vulnerabilities
in Tor Browser.
Changes and updates
- Update Tor Browser to 15.0.11, which fixes several vulnerabilities in Firefox 140.10.1.
We are not aware of these vulnerabilities being exploited in practice until
now.
-
Update Thunderbird to 140.10.0.
-
Stop making it possible to start our ISO images from a USB stick.
Since 2019, we recommend USB images to start Tails from a
USB stick, which is by far the most common way of running Tails.
We still distribute ISO images to
start Tails from a DVD or in a virtual machine. Until now, these ISO images
worked on USB sticks as well, but provided a degraded experience without
automatic upgrades or Persistent Storage.
Our ISO images no longer work on USB sticks to save a few megabytes and
prevent confusion for people who use USB sticks.
For more details, read our
changelog.
