## Stable

Today, we released stable version **0.4.9.9** , which address several security issues reported over the past few weeks. As the network upgrade to a safe threshold, we will make those issues public on our Gitlab issue tracker.

It seems like the webtunnel bridge image is still not updated: [thetorproject/webtunnel-bridge - Docker Image](https://hub.docker.com/r/thetorproject/webtunnel-bridge) . The image still contains 0.4.9.5. Should I stop my bridges for security reasons?

Is there a process to get those images updates? Last update was 3 month ago and I also had to ask for that one multiple times.

I will shut down all my webtunnel bridges for now. Sorry for that but I don’t want to run unmaintained services on the internet. I will restore them once the this is resolved.
