# [Tails 5.1.1 is
out](https://tails.boum.org/news/version_5.1.1/index.en.html)

This release fixes a [high severity security issue in
tor](https://forum.torproject.net/t/stable-release-0-4-7-8/3679), that affects
performance and possibly anonymity.

# Changes and updates

## Included software

* Update _tor_ to 0.4.7.8.

* Update _Thunderbird_ to [91.10](https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/91.10.0/releasenotes/).

* Update the _Linux_ kernel to 5.10.120. This fixes important security issues.

For more details, read our
[changelog](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/blob/master/debian/changelog).

# Known issues

None specific to this release.

See the list of [long-standing
issues](https://tails.boum.org/support/known_issues/index.en.html).

# Get Tails 5.1.1

## To upgrade your Tails USB stick and keep your persistent storage

* Automatic upgrades are available from Tails 5.x.

* If you cannot do an automatic upgrade or if Tails fails to start after an automatic upgrade, please try to do a [manual upgrade](https://tails.boum.org/doc/upgrade/index.en.html#manual).

## To install Tails on a new USB stick

Follow our installation instructions:

* [Install from Windows](https://tails.boum.org/install/windows/index.en.html)
* [Install from macOS](https://tails.boum.org/install/mac/index.en.html)
* [Install from Linux](https://tails.boum.org/install/linux/index.en.html)
* [Install from Debian or Ubuntu using the command line and GnuPG](https://tails.boum.org/install/expert/index.en.html)

The Persistent Storage on the USB stick will be lost if you install instead of
upgrading.

## To download only

If you don't need installation or upgrade instructions, you can download Tails
5.1.1 directly:

* [For USB sticks (USB image)](https://tails.boum.org/install/download/index.en.html)
* [For DVDs and virtual machines (ISO image)](https://tails.boum.org/install/download-iso/index.en.html)

# What's coming up?

Tails 5.2 is [tentatively
scheduled](https://tails.boum.org/contribute/calendar/) for July 5, but it
will likely be released later than that.

Have a look at our [roadmap](https://tails.boum.org/contribute/roadmap) to see
where we are heading to.
