+Changes in version 0.4.6.5 - 2021-06-14
+  Tor 0.4.6.5 is the first stable release in its series. The 0.4.6.x
+  series includes numerous features and bugfixes, including a significant
+  improvement to our circuit timeout algorithm that should improve
+  observed client performance, and a way for relays to report when they are
+  overloaded.
+
+  This release also includes security fixes for several security issues,
+  including a denial-of-service attack against onion service clients,
+  and another denial-of-service attack against relays. Everybody should
+  upgrade to one of 0.3.5.15, 0.4.4.9, 0.4.5.9, or 0.4.6.5.
+
+  Below are the changes since 0.4.6.4-rc. For a complete list of changes
+  since 0.4.5.8, see the ReleaseNotes file.
+
+  o Major bugfixes (security):
+    - Don't allow relays to spoof RELAY_END or RELAY_RESOLVED cell on
+      half-closed streams. Previously, clients failed to validate which
+      hop sent these cells: this would allow a relay on a circuit to end
+      a stream that wasn't actually built with it. Fixes bug 40389;
+      bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. This issue is also tracked as TROVE-2021-
+      003 and CVE-2021-34548.
+
+  o Major bugfixes (security, defense-in-depth):
+    - Detect more failure conditions from the OpenSSL RNG code.
+      Previously, we would detect errors from a missing RNG
+      implementation, but not failures from the RNG code itself.
+      Fortunately, it appears those failures do not happen in practice
+      when Tor is using OpenSSL's default RNG implementation. Fixes bug
+      40390; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. This issue is also tracked as
+      TROVE-2021-004. Reported by Jann Horn at Google's Project Zero.
+
+  o Major bugfixes (security, denial of service):
+    - Resist a hashtable-based CPU denial-of-service attack against
+      relays. Previously we used a naive unkeyed hash function to look
+      up circuits in a circuitmux object. An attacker could exploit this
+      to construct circuits with chosen circuit IDs, to create
+      collisions and make the hash table inefficient. Now we use a
+      SipHash construction here instead. Fixes bug 40391; bugfix on
+      0.2.4.4-alpha. This issue is also tracked as TROVE-2021-005 and
+      CVE-2021-34549. Reported by Jann Horn from Google's Project Zero.
+    - Fix an out-of-bounds memory access in v3 onion service descriptor
+      parsing. An attacker could exploit this bug by crafting an onion
+      service descriptor that would crash any client that tried to visit
+      it. Fixes bug 40392; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. This issue is also
+      tracked as TROVE-2021-006 and CVE-2021-34550. Reported by Sergei
+      Glazunov from Google's Project Zero.
+
+  o Minor features (geoip data):
+    - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as
+      retrieved on 2021/06/10.
+
+  o Minor features (logging, diagnostic):
+    - Log decompression failures at a higher severity level, since they
+      can help provide missing context for other warning messages. We
+      rate-limit these messages, to avoid flooding the logs if they
+      begin to occur frequently. Closes ticket 40175.

 Changes in version 0.4.6.4-rc - 2021-05-28
   Tor 0.4.6.4-rc fixes a few bugs from previous releases. This, we hope,
   the final release candidate in its series: unless major new issues are
