<h2>Random seed</h2>
Tails now stores a random seed on the USB stick to strengthen all cryptography.
Having a [[!wikipedia cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator
desc="secure random number generator"]] is critical to some of the cryptography
used in Tails, for example, in the Persistent Storage, Tor, or HTTPS.
This random seed is stored [[outside of the Persistent Storage|contribute/design/random]] so that all users can benefit from stronger cryptography.
<h1 id="changes">Changes and updates</h1>
Switch to using HTTPS addresses instead of an onion addresses for the Debian and Tails APT repositories. This makes the [[Additional Software|doc/persistent_storage/additional_software]] feature more reliable.
- Update *Tor Browser* to [13.0.16](https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-browser-13016).
- Update the *Tor* client to 0.4.8.12.
- Update *Thunderbird* to [115.12.0](https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/115.12.0/releasenotes/).
<h1 id="fixes">Fixed problems</h1>
Fix more issues when unlocking the Persistent Storage. ([[!tails_ticket 20020]], [[!tails_ticket 20344]], [[!tails_ticket 19913]])
Fix connecting to a mobile broadband network on some hardware. ([[!tails_ticket 20291]])
