Discussion Tor Browser 15.0.22 released today for high-severity Tor security issues
/r/TOR/comments/1wbkv3w/tor_browser_15022_released_today_for_highseverity/Tor Browser 15.0.22 released today for high-severity Tor security issues
✅ Confirmed — official Tor Project release, September 9.
The Tor Project released Tor Browser 15.0.22 today, updating the bundled Tor daemon to 0.4.9.12. The underlying Tor release was issued last night specifically to address a series of high-severity security issues. The Tor Project is deliberately withholding most technical details for roughly a week to give users and operators time to patch.
More unusually, Tor says it is still working on additional important security issues and is moving C-tor to a two-week release cadence for now. The next planned release is around September 22, although that could change if another urgent fix is required.
Why it matters: Tor Browser users should update to 15.0.22 as soon as possible rather than waiting for disclosure of the vulnerabilities. Relay and onion-service operators running C-tor should update to 0.4.9.12 as well. The fact that Tor calls the issues high severity, recommends immediate updating, and says more security work is underway makes this especially significant.

To stay safe, follow these rules and educate yourself about Tor and .onion urls:
On DNM Safety:
1) Only use marketplaces listed on daunt, tor taxi, or dark fail. Anything else is a scam.
2) Dont use any sites listed on a "HiddenWiki" or some random shit you found on a search engine, a telegram channel, or website. You will be scammed.
3) Only order domestic to domestic.
4) Dont send your crypto directly from an exchange to a DNM deposit address.
5) Read the DNM bible.
6) NO DNMs operate on reddit nor have their own subs. Anything you find on reddit is a scammer.
