Anyone using Tor browser should know that they should check it’s updating status before using it. Thankfully it checks itself but still, stay up to date before you browse.

118.0.1 was first released on Sept 28 too, so this isn't exactly breaking news.

Last time this story was posted, this was two updates ago. So unless you haven't upvoted in months, it's a non-issue.
