Would someone mind having a look at 462970 and 463034?

Both pull requests are open for close to two days by now and they fix a medium-severity security vulnerability in Tor, potentially leading to a remote crash.

Besides, relays on the old version are also no longer advertised in the current Tor consensus, meaning they now display a scary red warning too.

Why is it called RCE? They write

attackers with limited sudo privileges
