Changes

Notable user-visible changes include:

Security fixes Upgrade the web browser to 24.8.0esr-0+tails1~bpo70+1 (Firefox 24.8.0esr + Iceweasel patches + Torbrowser patches). Add an I2P boot parameter. Without adding "i2p" to the kernel command line, I2P will not be accessible for the Live user. I2P was also upgraded to 0.9.14.1-1~deb7u+1, and stricter firewall rules are applied to it, among other security enhancements. Upgrade Tor to 0.2.4.23-2~d70.wheezy+1 (fixes CVE-2014-5117). Upgrade Linux to 3.14.15-2 (fixes CVE-2014-3534, CVE-2014-4667 and CVE-2014-4943). Prevent dhclient from sending the hostname over the network (ticket #7688). Override the hostname provided by the DHCP server (ticket #7769).

Bugfixes Don't ship OpenJDK 6: I2P prefers v7, and we don't need both (ticket #7807). Prevent Tails Installer from updating the system partition properties on MBR partitions (ticket #7716).

Minor improvements Upgrade to Torbutton 1.6.12.1. Install gnome-user-guide (ticket #7618). Install cups-pk-helper (ticket #7636). Update the SquashFS sort file, which should speed up boot from DVD (ticket #6372). Compress the SquashFS more aggressively (ticket #7706) which should make the Tails ISO image smaller.
