“The I2P vulnerability works on default, fully patched installation of Tails. No settings or configurations need to be changed for the exploit to work.”

Although Tails 1.1 was released this week and closed numerous security holes, Exodus included a short video showing how to exploit I2P, even on Tails 1.1, and reveal a Tails user’s real IP address in less than two minutes"

PS: I am not 100% sure but it seems from the article that you need to be using the i2P network, so, if you only use Tor it should be safe but better double check this.
