[tor-packagers] Upcoming Tor security releases affecting 0.2.9, 0.3.1, 0.3.2, 0.3.3.

Hi!

[Sorry for the cross-posting!]

This coming week, we'll be putting out new stable releases for 0.2.9 and later supported branches to fix a few security bugs. The highest-severity bug to be fixed is severity "medium". (See https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/Security... for information about how we rank security issues.)

These releases will also backport the anti-DoS features from Tor 0.3.3.

Relays and authorities should be sure to upgrade once packages are available; these issues are not high-priority for clients.

best wishes,
