The Amnesic Incognito Live System

Tails è una distribuzione Linux live basata su Debian e Gnome che ha l’obbiettivo di garantire la privacy e l’anonimato in rete. Questo viene raggiunto tramite l’utilizzo di Tor per tutte le connessioni uscenti e i dati non vengono salvati su disco (tranne se abilitato).

Versione 1.1.1

Questa versione contiene (in Inglese):

• Security fixes
  • Upgrade the web browser to 24.8.0esr-0+tails1~bpo70+1 (Firefox 24.8.0esr + Iceweasel patches + Torbrowser patches).
  • Add an I2P boot parameter. Without adding “i2p” to the kernel command line, I2P will not be accessible for the Live user. I2P was also upgraded to 0.9.14.1-1~deb7u+1, and stricter firewall rules are applied to it, among other security enhancements.
  • Upgrade Tor to 0.2.4.23-2~d70.wheezy+1 (fixes CVE-2014-5117).
  • Upgrade Linux to 3.14.15-2 (fixes CVE-2014-3534, CVE-2014-4667 and CVE-2014-4943).
  • Prevent dhclient from sending the hostname over the network (ticket #7688).
  • Override the hostname provided by the DHCP server (ticket #7769).
• Bugfixes
  • Don’t ship OpenJDK 6: I2P prefers v7, and we don’t need both (ticket #7807).
  • Prevent Tails Installer from updating the system partition properties on MBR partitions (ticket #7716).
• Minor improvements
  • Upgrade to Torbutton 1.6.12.1.
  • Install gnome-user-guide (ticket #7618).
  • Install cups-pk-helper (ticket #7636).
  • Update the SquashFS sort file, which should speed up boot from DVD (ticket #6372).
  • Compress the SquashFS more aggressively (ticket #7706) which should make the Tails ISO image smaller.
