Download Tails 4.4.1

Tails stands for “The amnesic incognito live system” and is a live Linux distribution that focuses on privacy and anonymity. It uses Debian GNU/Linux as its base and adds a Gnome environment with Tor, Tor Browser, Pidgin, Thunderbird, Electrum, LibreOffice, GPG and KeePassXC. For more information, please refer to this page. The development team has released version 4.4.1 with the following improvements:

Included software

• Update Tor Browser to 9.0.7which prevents JavaScript from sometimes being enabled in the Safest security level of Tor Browser.
• Update Tor to 0.4.2.7, which fixes TROVE-2020-002, a major denial-of-service vulnerability that affects both Tor relays and clients. Using this vulnerability, an attacker could cause Tor to consume a huge amount of CPU, disrupting its operations for several seconds or minutes, and create patterns that could aid in traffic analysis.
• Update Thunderbird to 68.6.0.
