hey this is pretty cool! what a nice way to stay updated on the latest Tor developments.

one thing that is funny though is how the tags used include things like "tor" and "tor browser," but isn't that a little redundant when this whole blog is about Tor?

Tor 0.3.4.2-alpha is released!

Hi! There's a new alpha release available for download. If you build Tor from source, you can download the source code for 0.3.4.2-alpha from the usual place on the website. Packages should be available over the coming weeks, with a new alpha Tor Browser release over the coming weeks.

Tor 0.3.4.2-alpha fixes several minor bugs in the previous alpha release, and forward-ports an authority-only security fix from 0.3.3.6.

Changes in version 0.3.4.2-alpha - 2018-06-12

Directory authority changes:
- Add an IPv6 address for the "dannenberg" directory authority. Closes ticket 26343.
Major bugfixes (security, directory authority, denial-of-service, also in 0.3.3.6):
- Fix a bug that could have allowed an attacker to force a directory authority to use up all its RAM by passing it a maliciously crafted protocol versions string. Fixes bug 25517; bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. This issue is also tracked as TROVE-2018-005.
