+Changes in version 0.2.8.13 - 2017-03-??
+  Tor 0.2.8.13 backports a security fixes from later Tor
+  releases.  Anybody running Tor 0.2.8.12 or earlier should upgrade to this
+  this release, if for some reason they cannot upgrade to a later
+  release series, and if they build Tor with the --enable-expensive-hardening
+  option.
+
+  Note that support for Tor 0.2.8.x is ending this year: we will not issue
+  any fixes for the Tor 0.2.8.x series after 1 August 2017.  If you need
+  a Tor release series with longer-term support, we recommend Tor 0.2.9.x.
+
+
+  o Major bugfixes (parsing, also in 0.3.0.4-rc):
+    - Fix an integer underflow bug when comparing malformed Tor versions.
+      This bug is harmless, except when Tor has been built with
+      --enable-expensive-hardening, which would turn it into a crash;
+      or on Tor 0.2.9.1-alpha through Tor 0.2.9.8, which were built with
+      -ftrapv by default.
+      Part of TROVE-2017-001. Fixes bug 21278; bugfix on
+      0.0.8pre1. Found by OSS-Fuzz.
+
+  o Minor features (geoip):
+    - Update geoip and geoip6 to the February 8 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2
+      Country database.
