- https://arkenfox.github.io/TZP/tests/functionprops.html
- you can select `All` to get a full list - it's very boring unless you compare to other releases
So I thought I would compare TB13 vs ESR115 (using a PB window) - because we spoke about how some FP protections in the past have been to kill the API/feature and leave a ticket open "to investigate", which isn't necessarily true given the "few" diffs I see here - I say "few" because it's only a handful of decisions, even though it generates a bunch of noise

When I had my time offline the week before last I wrote a script to which takes a `tor-browser` or `firefox-android` translation file (`.dtd`, `.properties`, `.ftl`, or android `.xml`), and a new and an old branch name, and merges the versions found in both branches together with a comment added for strings that will be dropped at the next release. Here is the initial draft of the script if you want a quick look: [combine-translation-versions.py](/uploads/83cf1424566cf3b3222e6a60682bcc56/combine-translation-versions.py)
We could use the output as the `en-US` source files for weblate, combining both the strings needed for the next release as well as for the current stable release. The idea being that in tor-browser we can stop trying to maintain all the old strings in the current development branch that are still needed for the current stable release. And we can avoid having to manual clean ups of old strings, like in https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/42221.
E.g., if we have `tor-browser.ftl` in tor-browser-xxx-13.5 with the content
```
string1 = String 1
new-string = New String
string2 = String 2
```
and in tor-browser-xxx-13.0 with the content
```
old-string = Old String
string1 = String 1
string2 = String 2
```
the script would output
```
string1 = String 1
new-string = New String
string2 = String 2
## Will be unused in Tor Browser 13.5!
old-string = Old String
```
The reason I add the comment is to provide a little notification to weblate translators in the "Source string description" to let them know that a string has a short lifetime. Weblate doesn't support descriptions for `.dtd` though so it won't work for that format.
@emmapeel and @pierov what do you think? And where would we want to run this script?
I guess we basically want to merge the translations files from both the branch used for current nightly and current stable. I'm not sure if this can be automatically pulled from `tor-browser-build` in a convenient way, or whether we would need some manual input.henryhenryhttps://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser-build/-/issues/41041Sign mullvad-browser nightly updates2024-02-20T09:53:40ZboklmSign mullvad-browser nightly updatesAfter enabling mullvad-browser nightly builds in tor-browser-bundle-testsuite#40076,

- `$(BUILDER)` : whomever is building the release on the $(BUILD_SERVER)
- **example** : `pierov`
- `$(STAGING_SERVER)` : the server the signer is using to to run the signing process
- `$(ESR_VERSION)` : the Mozilla defined ESR version, used in various places for building tor-browser tags, labels, etc
- **example** : `91.6.0`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_MAJOR)` : the Tor Browser major version
- **example** : `11`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_MINOR)` : the Tor Browser minor version
- **example** : either `0` or `5`; Alpha's is always `(Stable + 5) % 10`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_VERSION)` : the Tor Browser version in the format
- **example** : `12.5a3`, `12.0.3`
- `$(BUILD_N)` : a project's build revision within a its branch; this is separate from the `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value; many of the Firefox-related projects have a `$(BUILD_N)` suffix and may differ between projects even when they contribute to the same build.
- **example** : `build1`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` : the tor-browser build revision for a given Tor Browser release; used in tagging git commits
- **example** : `build2`
- **NOTE** : A project's `$(BUILD_N)` and `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` may be the same, but it is possible for them to diverge. For example :
- if we have multiple Tor Browser releases on a given ESR branch the two will become out of sync as the `$(BUILD_N)` value will increase, while the `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value may stay at `build1` (but the `$(TOR_BROWSER_VERSION)` will increase)
- if we have build failures unrelated to `tor-browser`, the `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value will increase while the `$(BUILD_N)` will stay the same.
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_VERSION)` : the published Tor Browser version
- **example** : `11.5a6`, `11.0.7`
- `$(TBB_BUILD_TAG)` : the `tor-browser-build` build tag used to build a given Tor Browser version
- **example** : `tbb-12.5a7-build1`

**NOTE** It is assumed that the `tor-browser` stable rebase and security backport tasks have been completed
**NOTE** This can/is often done in conjunction with the equivalent Mullvad Browser release prep issue

- `tbb_version_type` : either `alpha` for alpha releases or `release` for stable releases
- [x] On `$(STAGING_SERVER)` in a separate `screen` session, ensure tor daemon is running with SOCKS5 proxy on the default port 9050
- [x] run do-all-signing script:
- `cd tor-browser-build/tools/signing/`
- `./do-all-signing.torbrowser`
- **NOTE**: at this point the signed binaries should have been copied to `staticiforme`
- [ ] Update `staticiforme.torproject.org`:

- [x] Static update components : `static-update-component cdn.torproject.org && static-update-component dist.torproject.org`
- [x] Enable update responses : `sudo -u tb-release ./deploy_update_responses-alpha.sh`
- [x] Remove old release data from following places:
- **NOTE** : Skip this step if we need to hold on to older versions for some reason (for example, this is an Andoid or Desktop-only release, or if we need to hold back installers in favor of build-to-build updates if there are signing issues, etc)

<summary>Explanation of variables</summary>
- `$(BUILD_SERVER)` : the server the main builder is using to build a mullvad-browser release
- `$(BUILDER)` : whomever is building the release on the $(BUILD_SERVER)
- **example** : `pierov`
- `$(STAGING_SERVER)` : the server the signer is using to to run the signing process
- `$(ESR_VERSION)` : the Mozilla defined ESR version, used in various places for building mullvad-browser tags, labels, etc
- **example** : `91.6.0`
- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_MAJOR)` : the Mullvad Browser major version
- **example** : `11`
- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_MINOR)` : the Mullvad Browser minor version
- **example** : either `0` or `5`; Alpha's is always `(Stable + 5) % 10`
- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_VERSION)` : the Mullvad Browser version in the format
- **example** : `12.5a3`, `12.0.3`
- `$(BUILD_N)` : a project's build revision within a its branch; this is separate from the `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value; many of the Firefox-related projects have a `$(BUILD_N)` suffix and may differ between projects even when they contribute to the same build.
- **example** : `build1`
- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` : the mullvad-browser build revision for a given Mullvad Browser release; used in tagging git commits
- **example** : `build2`
- **NOTE** : A project's `$(BUILD_N)` and `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` may be the same, but it is possible for them to diverge. For **example** :
- if we have multiple Mullvad Browser releases on a given ESR branch the two will become out of sync as the `$(BUILD_N)` value will increase, while the `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value may stay at `build1` (but the `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_VERSION)` will increase)
- if we have build failures unrelated to `mullvad-browser`, the `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value will increase while the `$(BUILD_N)` will stay the same.
- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_VERSION)` : the published Mullvad Browser version
- **example** : `11.5a6`, `11.0.7`
- `$(MB_BUILD_TAG)` : the `tor-browser-build` build tag used to build a given Mullvad Browser version
- **example** : `mb-12.0.7-build1`
</details>
**NOTE** It is assumed that the `tor-browser` stable rebase and security backport tasks have been completed

I'm h...First of all, my apologies, it's not trivial for me to reproduce with a pristine Tor Browser (I would need to learn how to log SOCKS activity in Tor Browser or tor daemon, without the facilities we have in Tails), so I did not yet. I'm hoping a Tor Browser developer can very cheaply confirm whether this happens in a pristine Tor Browser (if not, feel free to reject and I'll see what we can do about it in Tails :)
This was reported by a Tails user and I reproduced it on my Debian sid + Tor Browser configured to use the system tor daemon + OnionCircuits.
When I do "New identity", I see request for Tor circuits to ff00:::443. The logs from Tails onion-grater (our Tor control port filter daemon) say:

I understand the network rejects these attempts (`EXITPOLICY`), which is great. I understand ff00::/8 that's because is supposed to be local. But I suppose that ideally Tor Browser should not even ask tor to connect there.
I lack IPv6 expertise to tell how bad this is.
Interestingly I see no such connection attempt when first starting Tor Browser.ma1ma1https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser-build/-/issues/40987Prepare Mullvad Browser Stable 13.0.42023-11-24T16:35:23ZrichardPrepare Mullvad Browser Stable 13.0.4<details>

- `$(STAGING_SERVER)` : the server the signer is using to to run the signing process
- `$(ESR_VERSION)` : the Mozilla defined ESR version, used in various places for building mullvad-browser tags, labels, etc
- **example** : `91.6.0`
- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_MAJOR)` : the Mullvad Browser major version
- **example** : `11`
- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_MINOR)` : the Mullvad Browser minor version

- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_VERSION)` : the Mullvad Browser version in the format
- **example** : `12.5a3`, `12.0.3`
- `$(BUILD_N)` : a project's build revision within a its branch; this is separate from the `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value; many of the Firefox-related projects have a `$(BUILD_N)` suffix and may differ between projects even when they contribute to the same build.

- if we have multiple Mullvad Browser releases on a given ESR branch the two will become out of sync as the `$(BUILD_N)` value will increase, while the `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value may stay at `build1` (but the `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_VERSION)` will increase)
- if we have build failures unrelated to `mullvad-browser`, the `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value will increase while the `$(BUILD_N)` will stay the same.
- `$(MULLVAD_BROWSER_VERSION)` : the published Mullvad Browser version
- **example** : `11.5a6`, `11.0.7`
- `$(MB_BUILD_TAG)` : the `tor-browser-build` build tag used to build a given Mullvad Browser version

**Timeline**
Work items tagged as ~"Sponsor 96" (i.e. those required to deliver a working prototype of Lox in Tor Browser Alpha) should be complete by the due date assigned to the issue in order to make the code audit for the project. Other work items not strictly required for the prototype (e.g. generic changes to Connection Settings or converting traditional bridges to use the new bridge card format) are considered lower priority, and may be completed later in the 13.5 release cycle.
**Release**
All features developed for this ticket are to be included in the 13.5 Alpha series (desktop only), however:
- Lox-specific features **should not** be released in 13.5 stable, and care should be taken to separate patches specific to Lox from other work. There is no set stable release date for Lox at present, and we anticipate a long testing period until it's ready (e.g. by 14.5 stable instead).
- Generic features (e.g. changes to Connection Settings or traditional bridges) may be released in 13.5 stable, if ready.Sponsor 96: Rapid Expansion of Access to the Uncensored Internet through Tor in China, Hong Kong, & Tibethenryhenry2024-01-18https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser-build/-/issues/40986Prepare Tor Browser Alpha 13.5a22023-12-04T12:00:09ZrichardPrepare Tor Browser Alpha 13.5a2<details>

<summary>Explanation of variables</summary>
- `$(BUILD_SERVER)` : the server the main builder is using to build a tor-browser release
- `$(BUILDER)` : whomever is building the release on the $(BUILD_SERVER)
- **example** : `pierov`
- `$(STAGING_SERVER)` : the server the signer is using to to run the signing process
- `$(ESR_VERSION)` : the Mozilla defined ESR version, used in various places for building tor-browser tags, labels, etc
- **example** : `91.6.0`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_MAJOR)` : the Tor Browser major version
- **example** : `11`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_MINOR)` : the Tor Browser minor version
- **example** : either `0` or `5`; Alpha's is always `(Stable + 5) % 10`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_VERSION)` : the Tor Browser version in the format
- **example** : `12.5a3`, `12.0.3`
- `$(BUILD_N)` : a project's build revision within a its branch; this is separate from the `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value; many of the Firefox-related projects have a `$(BUILD_N)` suffix and may differ between projects even when they contribute to the same build.
- **example** : `build1`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` : the tor-browser build revision for a given Tor Browser release; used in tagging git commits
- **example** : `build2`
- **NOTE** : A project's `$(BUILD_N)` and `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` may be the same, but it is possible for them to diverge. For example :
- if we have multiple Tor Browser releases on a given ESR branch the two will become out of sync as the `$(BUILD_N)` value will increase, while the `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value may stay at `build1` (but the `$(TOR_BROWSER_VERSION)` will increase)
- if we have build failures unrelated to `tor-browser`, the `$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)` value will increase while the `$(BUILD_N)` will stay the same.
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_VERSION)` : the published Tor Browser version
- **example** : `11.5a6`, `11.0.7`
- `$(TBB_BUILD_TAG)` : the `tor-browser-build` build tag used to build a given Tor Browser version
- **example** : `tbb-12.0.7-build1`
</details>
**NOTE** It is assumed that the `tor-browser` stable rebase and security backport tasks have been completed

<summary>Signing</summary>
### signing
- **NOTE** : In practice, it's most efficient to have the blog post and website updates ready to merge, since signing doesn't take very long
- [x] On `$(STAGING_SERVER)`, ensure updated:
- [x] `tor-browser-build` is on the right commit: `git tag -v tbb-$(TOR_BROWSER_VERSION)-$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N) && git checkout tbb-$(TOR_BROWSER_VERSION)-$(TOR_BROWSER_BUILD_N)`
- [x] `tor-browser-build/tools/signing/set-config.hosts`
- `ssh_host_builder` : ssh hostname of machine with unsigned builds
- **NOTE** : `tor-browser-build` is expected to be in the `$HOME` directory)
- `ssh_host_linux_signer` : ssh hostname of linux signing machine
- [x] `tor-browser-build/tools/signing/set-config.rcodesign-appstoreconnect`
- `appstoreconnect_api_key_path` : path to json file containing appstoreconnect api key infos
- [x] `set-config.update-responses`
- `update_responses_repository_dir` : directory where you cloned `git@gitlab.torproject.org:tpo/applications/tor-browser-update-responses.git`
- [x] `tor-browser-build/tools/signing/set-config.tbb-version`
- `tbb_version` : tor browser version string, same as `var/torbrowser_version` in `rbm.conf` (examples: `11.5a12`, `11.0.13`)
- `tbb_version_build` : the tor-browser-build build number (if `var/torbrowser_build` in `rbm.conf` is `buildN` then this value is `N`)
- `tbb_version_type` : either `alpha` for alpha releases or `release` for stable releases
- [x] On `$(STAGING_SERVER)` in a separate `screen` session, ensure tor daemon is running with SOCKS5 proxy on the default port 9050
- [x] run do-all-signing script:
- `cd tor-browser-build/tools/signing/`
- `./do-all-signing.torbrowser`
- **NOTE**: at this point the signed binaries should have been copied to `staticiforme`
- [x] Update `staticiforme.torproject.org`:

- [x] Static update components : `static-update-component cdn.torproject.org && static-update-component dist.torproject.org`
- [x] Enable update responses : `sudo -u tb-release ./deploy_update_responses-release.sh`
- [x] Remove old release data from following places:
- **NOTE** : Skip this step if we need to hold on to older versions for some reason (for example, this is an Andoid or Desktop-only release, or if we need to hold back installers in favor of build-to-build updates if there are signing issues, etc)
- [x] `/srv/cdn-master.torproject.org/htdocs/aus1/torbrowser`
- [x] `/srv/dist-master.torproject.org/htdocs/torbrowser`

- Update Release Name to Tor Browser version number
- Update Release Notes
- Next to 'Release notes', click `Copy from a previous release`
- Edit blog post url to point to most recent blog post

It seems the `TorStartupService` isn't being loaded (even though I'm quite sure it looks like exactly the one we had in Torbutton).
I don't know if it's due to the XPCOM changes that happened between 102 and 115, or if it's just because of the various refactors.
Since we don't have a circuit display, the only way to notice this is going to different sites that show the IP address, and notice that they have the same one, but we'd expect them to be isolated.
Some Tor-friendly ones are:

- https://www.wtfismyip.com/
- https://myip.wtf/ (same as the previous one, but different FP domain for TBB :smile:)
- https://mullvad.net/en/check
When we finally start working on tests we should also have a test that checks circuit FPI.Pier Angelo VendramePier Angelo Vendrame
