Tor Browser 7.0.10 is ready for testing.
From Tails side, I just reported: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24243
From the testing I did today I can see that it actually started with 7.0.8, but we didn't notice it until now since neither 7.0.8 nor 7.0.9 were relevant for Tails. :/
Is this something you believe could be fixed before the final release?
Alas, no. The Torbutton issue is weird but even if we had fixed that one there is the breakage due to the workaround for #24052. We did not come up with a better one for that security issue in the short time we had.
I am not sure if we can do something for Tails in case Mozilla does not fix the problem soon. We might be able to think about choosing a preference-based approach and Tails can flip the pref accordingly given that it does not seem to be affected that badly from the underlying bug.
But that's not a decision and a patch for the last minute, I am afraid.
