Tor Browser Bundle 3.5.4 Updates OpenSSL To 1.0.1g

Tor Browser Bundle 3.5.4 is available in the Tor Browser Bundle PPA.

This release updates the OpenSSL version to 1.0.1g, to address potential client-side vectors for CVE-2014-0160. The browser itself does not use OpenSSL, and is not vulnerable to this CVE. However, this release is still considered an important security update, because it is theoretically possible to extract sensitive information from the Tor client sub-process.
