#20301 along with #13893 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/13893 is in relation to a query by a windows 7 user getting the message "EMET detect a SimExecFlow coming from TorBrowser and close the app (crash)". This is where this was picked up from - https://blog.torproject.org/comment/273598#comment-273598 https://blog.torproject.org/comment/273621#comment-273621 However, I haven't mentioned #13893 in my mail as I didn't see any activity on it during the past month.
#24197 is with reference to https://blog.torproject.org/comment/273611#comment-273611
