Tor Browser 12.0.3 is now available from the Tor Browser download page and also
from our distribution directory.
This release updates Firefox to 102.8, including bug fixes, stability improvements
and important security updates. There were no Android-specific security updates to backport from the Firefox 110 release.
We use this opportunity to update various components of Tor Browser as well:
- NoScript 11.4.16
- OpenSSL 1.1.1t
We would like to thank all of the community volunteers for their contributions this month! Specifically:
- t-m-w from CalyxOS for their fix for tor-browser#40536
- cypherpunks1 for their fixes for tor-browser#41424, tor-browser#41565, tor-browser#40717, and tor-browser#41578
- trinity-1686a for their fix for tor-browser#41066
