Download Tor Browser 12.0.2

Version 12.0.2 of Tor Browser has been released. Tor stands for The Onion Router and is a network that can be used to surf the Internet fairly anonymously. All users’ TCP traffic is routed through different Tor routers, after which it is virtually impossible for the recipient to find out who the original sender was. That information is still present within the Tor network, so that answers, of course also via the system of routers, ultimately arrive at the right place. Version 12 is based on Firefox ESR 102, while version 11 was still ESR 91. The release notes for this release look like this:

Tor Browser 12.0.2

This release updates Firefox to 102.7, including bug fixes, stability improvements and important security updates. There were no Android-specific security updates to backport from the Firefox 109 release. We use this opportunity to update various components of Tor Browser as well:

  • tor 0.4.7.13
  • NoScript 11.4.14
  • go 1.19.5

We would like to thank user ryotak for identifying a script blocking bypass on local file:// resources. The full changelog since Tor Browser 12.0.1 is:
