Vulnerability changelog

- Launch the browser with a local file which redirects to the server
address including the authentication token ([4260](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/4260)). This prevents another logged-in user from stealing
the token from command line arguments and authenticating to the
server. The single-use token previously used to mitigate this has
been removed. Thanks to Dr. Owain Kenway for suggesting the local
file approach.
- Upgrade bootstrap to 3.4, fixing an XSS vulnerability, which has
been assigned
