[tor-announce] [RELEASE] Tor 0.4.8.11

[David Goulet]

Greetings,

We just released tor 0.4.8.11.

https://forum.torproject.org/t/stable-release-0-4-8-11/12265

Here is the ChangeLog.

Changes in version 0.4.8.11 - 2024-04-10
  This is a minor release mostly to upgrade the fallbackdir list. Worth noting
  also that directory authority running this version will now automatically
  reject relays running the end of life 0.4.7.x version.

  o Minor feature (authority):
    - Reject 0.4.7.x series at the authority level. Closes ticket 40896.

  o Minor feature (dirauth, tor26):
    - New IP address and keys.

  o Minor feature (directory authority):
    - Allow BandwidthFiles "node_id" KeyValue without the dollar sign at
      the start of the hexdigit, in order to easier database queries
      combining Tor documents in which the relays fingerprint does not
      include it. Fixes bug 40891; bugfix on 0.4.7 (all supported
      versions of Tor).

  o Minor features (fallbackdir):
    - Regenerate fallback directories generated on April 10, 2024.

  o Minor features (geoip data):
    - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as
      retrieved on 2024/04/10.

  o Minor bugfixes (directory authorities):
    - Add a warning when publishing a vote or signatures to another
      directory authority fails. Fixes bug 40910; bugfix
      on 0.2.0.3-alpha.

Cheers!
David
