The 18th alpha release of the Torbutton development series has just
been released. The release features fixes for issues with gmail,
yahoo, and livejournal, and also fixes issues with the Clear Private
Data feature.
The release can be found at: https://torbutton.torproject.org/dev/
There is potentially one more feature I would like to get in before
declaring 1.2.0rc1, and that is ssl certificate separation:
https://bugs.torproject.org/flyspray/index.php?do=details&id=664
It looks like it should be possible, but if it turns out to be
impossible or extremely hairy, I may just drop it for 1.2.0.
Also, see https://torbutton.torproject.org/dev/design/#FirefoxBugs
for a list of Firefox bugs still impacting Torbutton security.
Here is the complete changelog:
1.1.18
17 Apr 2008
* bugfix: Fix Gmail exceptions involving window.navigator that made Gmail
unusable after recent updates by Google.
* bugfix: Fix an exception in the content policy that may have prevented
some AJAX page elements from loading.
* bugfix: Fix regression on cross-state favicon leak introduced in 1.1.17
* bugfix: Fix to make clear private data work again by fixing up history
hooking (may also help FF3 compatibility).
* bugfix: Fix Yahoo email account creation (broken due to Date.valueOf()
weirdness).
* bugfix: Fix to allow plugins if the user unchecks the plugin blocking
preference
* bugfix: Fix bug 638: eliminate cross-state history popup on session
restore

the resizing code less annoying, and drift less.

(observed on LiveJournal)
* bugfix: Fix javascript debugger compatibility issues involving source
window display and other functionality.
* misc: Prevent blocked popups from opening blank, unusable windows
