    Changes in tor:

    - Update to 0.4.9.11
      * Major bugfixes
        - onion services: Prevent a race condition (boo#1275918, CVE-2026-77638)
        - client: no longer assert and exit if an onion service encodes an
          all-zero public key for one of its introduction points
        - directory authorities: Stop allowing 0 as a port in exit policy lines
        - security, conflux: Fix a use-after-free (and potential double free)
          (boo#1275919, CVE-2026-77587, TROVE-2026-026)

    - Update to 0.4.9.10
      * Major bugfixes
        - conflux, security: Reject a CONFLUX_LINK cell that arrives on a circuit
          which already has attached streams. (boo#1275920, CVE-2026-77584, TROVE-2026-025)
        - client: Resume warning about unsafe socks protocols when SafeSocks
          is not set. Also resume warning every time when TestSocks is set.
        - Make clients more consistently expire entry guards 48 to 60 days
          after they are first used.
