This update for tor fixes the following issues:

Changes in tor:

• update to 0.4.8.23:

  • Fix a series of defense in depth security issues found across the codebase
  • Regenerate fallback directories generated on March 25, 2026.
  • Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as retrieved on 2026/03/25.

• includes changes from 0.4.8.22:

  • Avoid an out-of-bounds read error that could occur with V1-formatted EXTEND cells (TROVE-2025-016, boo#1262301)
  • Allow old clients to fetch the consensus even if they use version 0 of the SENDME protocol
  • Do not check for compression bombs for buffers smaller than 5MB (increased from 64 KB)
