+Changes in version 0.2.7.8 - 2017-06-08
+  Tor 0.2.7.8 backports a fix for a bug that would allow an attacker to
+  remotely crash a hidden service with an assertion failure. Anyone
+  running a hidden service should upgrade to this version, or to some

+    - Fix a remotely triggerable assertion failure caused by receiving a
+      BEGIN_DIR cell on a hidden service rendezvous circuit. Fixes bug
+      22494, tracked as TROVE-2017-005 and CVE-2017-0376; bugfix
+      on 0.2.2.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor features (geoip):
+    - Update geoip and geoip6 to the May 2 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2
+      Country database.
+
