This release fixes [many security issues](https://tails.boum.org/security/Nume
rous_security_holes_in_3.7/index.en.html) and users should upgrade as soon as
possible.

# Changes

## Upgrades and changes

  * Upgrade _Tor Browser_ to 7.5.5.

This fixes a [critical issue in
Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/2017/mfsa2018-14.html)
announced on June 6.

  * Upgrade _Thunderbird_ to 52.8.0.

This partly mitigates the infamous EFAIL attack and fixes importing OpenPGP
keys from keyservers with Enigmail.

## Fixed problems

  * Fix setting a screen locker password with non-ASCII characters. ([#15636](ht
tps://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/15636))

  * Rename the _WhisperBack_ launcher to "WhisperBack Error Reporting" so that
users have a better chance to understand what it does. ([#6432](https://labs.ris
eup.net/code/issues/6432))

For more details, read our [changelog](https://git-
tails.immerda.ch/tails/plain/debian/changelog).
