Tor Browser 4.5.2 is released

Have you changed the way the scrolling through pages with the arrow down key works? Ever since this update it seems using the arrow up and down keys to move up and down a webpage results in different behaviour. Whereas before it would scroll down evenly and smoothly, now it makes sudden jumps and seems to act more like a tab key! I dont think it is performing tab function though. It will work well when scrolling through text for example, but then will suddenly change.

It seems like the arrow keys might be causing the cursor to jump to sections of text as if you are in a word processing program rather than on a webpage! It is very annoying whatever it is and I think it should be changed back. It also caused trouble when trying to select a body of text using the shift key + the up or down arrow, suddenly deselecting a section of text that had already been selected and jumping to another section. Is this a bug or was this deliberate to try and achieve something?

Recent Updates

New Release: Tor 0.4.2.1-alpha

There's a new alpha release available for download. If you build Tor from source, you can download the source code for 0.4.2.1-alpha from the download page on the website. Packages should be available over the coming weeks, with a new alpha Tor Browser release in the next couple of weeks.

Remember, this is an alpha release: you should only run this if you'd like to find and report more bugs than usual.

This is the first alpha release in the 0.4.2.x series. It adds new defenses for denial-of-service attacks against onion services. It also includes numerous kinds of bugfixes and refactoring to help improve Tor's stability and ease of development.

Changes in version 0.4.2.1-alpha - 2019-09-17

Major features (onion service v3, denial of service):
- Add onion service introduction denial of service defenses. Intro points can now rate-limit client introduction requests, using parameters that can be sent by the service within the ESTABLISH_INTRO cell. If the cell extension for this is not used, the intro point will honor the consensus parameters. Closes ticket 30924.
Major bugfixes (circuit build, guard):
- When considering upgrading circuits from "waiting for guard" to "open", always ignore circuits that are marked for close. Previously we could end up in the situation where a subsystem is notified of a circuit opening, but the circuit is still marked for close, leading to undesirable behavior. Fixes bug 30871; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
