Subject: [Tails-testers] [Tails-news] Tails 3.10.1 is out
This release fixes [many security vulnerabilities](https://tails.boum.org/secu
rity/Numerous_security_holes_in_3.9.1/index.en.html).

You should upgrade as soon as possible.

# Changes

## Upgrades and changes

* Hide the **[PIM** option](https://tails.boum.org/doc/encryption_and_privacy/veracrypt/index.en.html#parameters) when unlocking _VeraCrypt_ volumes because _PIM_ won't be supported until Tails 4.0. ([#16031](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/16031))

* Rename the buttons in the confirmation dialog of _Tails Installer_ to **Install** (or **Upgrade**) and **Cancel** to be less confusing. ([#11501](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/11501))

* Update _Linux_ to 4.8.

* Update _Tor Browser_ to 8.0.3.

* Update _Thunderbird_ to 60.2.1.

## Fixed problems

* Prevent _Tor Browser_ from leaking the language of the session. ([#16029](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/16029))

* Prevent _Additional Software_ from asking to persist packages which are already configured as additional software. ([#15983](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/15983))

* Prevent _Tails Installer_ from crashing when issuing an error message with international characters (non-ASCII). ([#15166](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/15166))

* Fix the _VeraCrypt_ support for multiple encryption ([cascades of ciphers](https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/Cascades.html)). ([#15967](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/15967))

* Harden the configuration of `sudo` to prevent privilege escalation. ([#15829](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/15829))
