Install Ubuntu
--------------

.. caution:: As of this writing (2019-02-26), Ubuntu ISO images ship a version of
the `apt` package that is vulnerable to CVE-2019-3462. The SecureDrop installer
has mitigations in place to ensure the package is safely upgraded. We
recommend you perform the initial Ubuntu install on servers that do not have
Internet connectivity.
.. caution:: Please ensure you are using Ubuntu Xenial ISO images 16.04.6 or greater.
Ubuntu Xenial ISO images 16.04.5 and lower ship with a version of the `apt` package
vulnerable to CVE-2019-3462. If you are using 16.04.5 or lower, the initial base OS
must be installed without Internet connectivity.

.. note:: Installing Ubuntu is simple and may even be something you are very familiar
with, but we **strongly** encourage you to read and follow this documentation
