Tor Browser 6.0.3 is released

by boklm | August 2, 2016

Tor Browser 6.0.3 is now available from the Tor Browser Project page and also from our distribution directory.

This release features important security updates to Firefox.

This release updates Firefox to 45.3.0esr. Additionally, it bumps NoScript to 2.9.0.12, HTTPS-Everywhere to 5.2.1, disables asmjs, removes meek-google and contains a few other bug fixes.

Note: Due to bug 19410, on OSX the incremental update will not be working for users who installed the previous version using the .dmg file. The internal updater should still work, though, doing a complete update.

Update (August 11, 10:04 UTC): Starting from a couple of hours ago Tor Browser users might see a notification box in their browser claiming that Firefox is too old providing a button to get a newer one. This is both due to a server-side code change on Mozilla's side and an oversight by us during the ESR45 transition. Clicking on the "Get Firefox" button is safe and leads the user to our Tor Browser download page. Needless to say, this whole behavior is highly confusing and we apologize for it. We are working on a fix as quickly as possible and hope to get Mozilla to exempt Tor Browser users from this feature while we are working on a new release. For technical details see our bug tracker.

Here is the full changelog since 6.0.2:

All Platforms
- Update Firefox to 45.3.0esr
- Update Torbutton to 1.9.5.6
  - Bug 19417: Disable asmjs for now
  - Bug 19689: Use proper parent window for plugin prompt
- Update HTTPS-Everywhere to 5.2.1
- Update NoScript to 2.9.0.12
- Bug 19715: Disable the meek-google pluggable transport option
- Bug 19714: Remove mercurius4 obfs4 bridge
- Bug 19585: Fix regression test for keyboard layout fingerprinting
- Bug 19515: Tor Browser is crashing in graphics code
- Bug 18513: Favicon requests can bypass New Identity
OS X
- Bug 19269: Icon doesn't appear in Applications folder or Dock
Android
- Bug 19484: Avoid compilation error when MOZ_UPDATER is not defined

Actually, Tor

Actually, Tor tools>options>advanced>updates already has dashboard options available as in:

"Automatically install updates (recommended: improved security)"

"Check for updates, but let me choose whether to install them."

"Never check for updates (not recommended: security risk)"

Tor, like any other app, requires fettling to conform it to your personal requirements.

Using Tor, as is, is a poor security choice so please take the trouble to read and understand the values of all the options on offer - not only in the tools menu but also in NoScript and in Tor button.

Understand also that the Tor browser is only fully secure when accessing sites available on the Tor network and nowhere else.

Now the comment above, "...

Now the comment above, "... the Tor browser is only fully secure when accessing sites available on the Tor network and nowhere else." caught my attention like a hornet in a coke can.

I freely admit to limited understanding of Tor/anonymous nuances but that comment sounds as if I should have heard it first day in class.

How does one know if accessing a site with Tor on another network?

Said another way, if the site is on another network and not Tor's network I did think, until now, that it would be virtually impossible to pierce the Tor veil.

If you've the patience, a little dumb down would be appreciated, or point me to another source.

If the URL ends with .onion

If the URL ends with .onion you are on the TOR network, if it ends with .com or anything other than .onion, you are exiting TOR to the regular internet.

I updated TBB using the "About Tor Brower".
Initially everything seemed alright. TBB finished updating and I restarted it.
The home page said that my TBB is ver 6.0.3.
After a while, I realized that https everywhere was gone. I checked the add-ons list and it only listed noscript, torbutton, and tor launcher.
I ended up downloading a fresh copy of TBB; now everything is okay.

Are you the same user that reported this behavior for the previous version? We have https://bugs.torproject.org/19491 and are looking for repeatable steps for your problem to look closer at it. If you have any, please share! (If you want to test, 6.0.2 can be found on https://utuhewzcso.oedi.net/torbrowser/6.0.2/)

The slider is only concerned with the security of your Tor Browser not with your fingerprintability, say, by examining the fonts available. That said this risk should got minimized from Tor Browser 5.5 on where we started shipping the same fonts to use (roughly) for all users of the same platform.

Some sites are bound to be unusable at High Security, as they require features that are disabled at High Security in order to function. Last I checked, Youtube didn't like that HTML5 was click to play at high security. There's some concern that a bug might allow a video to be used in an exploit, therefore HTML5 video is click to play.

Youtube JS player crashes

Youtube JS player crashes when a browser says it supports SVG, but doesn't allow to draw player's elements. Video plays automatically, though.

Do you have steps to

Do you have steps to reproduce for the crashes?

You can use youtube-dl

You can use youtube-dl software. When a video interests you, download it with this stuff, with --proxy "socks5://127.0.0.1:9150"
9150 will use your tor browser's tor. If you prefer, you can run another tor instance and use theirs port.
You can open and watch a video before it's fully downloaded, just can't seek to a time that hasn't downloaded yet
For better security you might want to use app that hooks youtube-dl and force every connection through tor, like freecap, AdvOR etc

You could try the Tor

You could try the Tor Browser in Tails at High Security setting and see if it works for you. Tor Browser in Tails runs faster ( for me ) than the same Tor Browser version for Windows. YouTube videos play much clearer and smoother in Tails than Windows, although at a lower Security setting.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but the new version keeps telling me firefox is not found for installation. I gone though searching my whole c drive(after making sure I have removing older copies), %appdata% threads and drives and removing or renaming directories like they recommend but nothing is working, I know firefox has released two new versions in two days but their update chart and your comment thread says everything is fine. Have you guys been getting any similar reports or is something up with my system. This is my first upgrade with you guys since being forced into win10. Thanks ahead of time, Johnny

Hello, I asked this question

Hello,

I asked this question recently, but you seemingly overlooked it, so I will try again.

I cannot access a website with Tor and wish to enquire if you know why. It is a forum for techniques that enable skin growth. Here is the link:
http://foreskinrestoration.vbulletin.net/

Please publish this query as your help would be very valuable to me. I desperately need to use the forum again via Tor (for personal nature of the content).

Thank you.

Immediately after update to

Immediately after update to 6.0.3, bridge connections all fail within minutes and logs fill with "Giving up on marked_for_close conn that's been flushing for 15s" messages. Also and more troubling (perhaps related) after closing the browser as gracefully as possible (tor has now been crashing, causing the browser to freeze) its processes and those of the transports always appear to remain resident.

I don't think there isa general thread so I'm posting this here.

I found the following article from:

https://thehackernews.com/2016/07/tor-anonymity-node.html

"Another blow to the Tor Project: One of the Tor Project's earliest contributors has decided to quit the project and shut down all of the important Tor nodes under his administration.
Lucky Green was part of the Tor Project before the anonymity network was known as TOR. He probably ran one of the first 5 nodes in the TOR network at its inception and managed special nodes inside the anonymity network."

What will this mean for the many (grateful) users of TOR?

Thanks

Probably not much; maybe

Probably not much; maybe some slight slowdown, but that quote is sensationalizing it. There's a thread in the Mailing List archive that you can look up, which was probably where The Hacker News found out about it in the first place.

This is part of the reason why I don't read them, along with their dumbing-down of everything to the point that they butcher the concepts involved.

I am using Windows. When I

I am using Windows. When I start the browser I see a black strip across the bottom (underneath the NoScript banner). This black strip only disappears if I maximize the browser.

I also get inconsistent browser resolutions. For example I usually see a browser window that has a short height, but if I maximize first and then create a new window or new identity then the new window has a a longer height. I believe this problem is tied to the screen resolution that I am using (but I'm not sure what is causing the problem of the black strip across the bottom of the browser which I described above).

These problems already existed in previous versions.

There are a bunch of corner

There are a bunch of corner cases around our window resizing logic on Windows. https://bugs.torproject.org/13437 has some). We hope to address all of them when moving our JavaScript code into a C++ patch hopefully fixing the things at the right level (we have https://bugs.torproject.org/19459 for this task).

I'm using TBB on Linux and this version (6.0.3) shows me a message saying "Your Firefox is out of date. Please download a fresh copy".

I refer to the security vulnerability discussed on the page whose URL is https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2016-5696

Would you be rolling out an updated version once Debian has issued a patch for it?

I did make one change to Tor. I added the 'Mozilla Archive Format' add-on. Could this possibly be causing the problem? I can't imagine why it would though. I suspect a bug, but it doesn't appear that anyone else is mentioning it.

this new version screwed up

this new version screwed up my ability to log into one of my webmail accounts, I suspect something is whacked with one of the plugins such as maybe the NoScript or possibly with Java scripting options that got fouled up when you pushed this download onto my machine and hozed up my ability to use one of my accounts due to this.

btw, this happened on a WINDOZE box as well, I am on Xubuntu currently, latest version.

between the graphics instability which really bites, and this, I'm just about ready to quit using TOR altogether because now of all things, the a$$holes in RU are now blocking the use of it more aggressively and somehow or another they have the ability to watch all nodes going thru their hardware and then blast the user with a big fat warning message I'd prefer not to read again.

thanks for making a very very unstable product even worse guys! really!

So, you are saying a clean

So, you are saying a clean Tor Browser 6.0.2 (https://archive.torproject.org/tor-package-archive/torbrowser/6.0.2/) is working for you and a clean Tor Browser 6.0.3 (https://archive.torproject.org/tor-package-archive/torbrowser/6.0.3/) does not anymore? How can I reproduce that?

only the clean version 6.0.3

only the clean version 6.0.3 was not working, however I discovered the clock on my laptop was a day behind so when I reset clock day and time everything is working now...and than there is new version 6.0.4 is working great now!! Thank you tor!

Is there any need for such a

Is there any need for such a rant?

The TOR developers are doing a great job. The vast majority of people are using it OK. If you are not able to use it - as we are doing - why don't you try reformatting your hard-drive and reloading everything - instead of just automatically blaming TOR.

Stop using TOR. Who will care? Only YOU.
