 https://svn.torproject.org/svn/check/trunk/cgi-bin/TorCheck.py it includes
 "There is a security update available for the Tor Browser Bundle." I saw
 that message live already.

 How can check.torproject.org find out the Tor Browser Bundle version? This
 is not documented.

 If check.torproject.org can do it, can other websites get the information
 as well?
