Security firm finds vulnerability in Tails

A security vulnerability detection company has published a video demonstrating one of the many vulnerabilities it has identified in the privacy-focused Tails operating system used by those who wish to make their Web browser harder to track.tails

Exodus Intelligence of Austin, Texas, said its short clip shows how a Tails user's real IP address can be revealed using the flaw. The company said it hopes the publication of the bug will serve as a warning to users about "unconditional trust" in a software platform.

"Users should question the tools they use, they should go even further to understand the mechanisms that interconnect for security," Exodus said in a blog post.
