This release includes security updates for Firefox (52.4.0esr) and a
new Tor stable version (0.3.1.7), the first one in the 0.3.1 series. In
addition to that we updated the HTTPS Everywhere and NoScript extensions
we ship. Moreover, we fixed minor usability issues and a bug which,
under particular circumstances, caused all tabs to crash after closing
a single one.

Note: The release date in the changelog displayed after the update is
incorrect. The actual release date is September 28.
