- Upgrading your tor router to v0.4.6.7
- Tor users should upgrade their tor binary router to the newest stable release 0.4.6.7. Tor v0.4.6.7 is the newest stable in the 0.4.6.x lineage and adds a very important security feature, it blocks against denial of service attacks against the Tor relay servers and denial of service attacks against the Tor users themselves. Kind of like a Covid19 Vaccine, everyone should have one.

- Download Tor: https://dist.torproject.org/tor-0.4.6.7.tar.gz
- General Torproject Download Page https://www.torproject.org/download/tor/
- Changelog https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/plain/ChangeLog?h=tor-0.4.6.7
- .
- Build from source
- Open a terminal window in example /media/name/ ../tor-0.4.6.7$
- Issue the following commands in your terminal at the command prompt
- $ ./configure
- $ make
- $ sudo make install
- If you have individual tor folders as I do for each active app or instance, rename your existing tor binary and upgrade the tor binary and geoip, geoip6 files to those you just compiled by copying those over to that folder. If you only use the system files install, you are already upgraded upon issuing the $ sudo make install command.
- If you experience permissions issues trying to run your new tor binary, enter into the tor folder containing the binary and issue chmod 700
