Greetings, We just released 0.4.8.10 fixing a high severity security bug. https://forum.torproject.org/t/security-release-0-4-8-10/10536 Please upgrade as soon as possible! ChangeLog is below. Cheers! David Changes in version 0.4.8.10 - 2023-12-08 This is a security release fixing a high severity bug (TROVE-2023-007) affecting Exit relays supporting Conflux. We strongly recommend to update as soon as possible. o Major bugfixes (TROVE-2023-007, exit): - Improper error propagation from a safety check in conflux leg linking lead to a desynchronization of which legs were part of a conflux set, ultimately causing a UAF and NULL pointer dereference crash on Exit relays. Fixes bug 40897; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha. o Minor features (fallbackdir): - Regenerate fallback directories generated on December 08, 2023. o Minor features (geoip data): - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as retrieved on 2023/12/08. o Minor bugfixes (bridges, statistics): - Correctly report statistics for client count over Pluggable transport. Fixes bug 40871; bugfix on 0.4.8.4 -- KoiYV0r+s/gBA1mtD5BF4cLB+oko0QSvpdfwKThv3Ko=
