- o Major bugfixes (also in 0.2.3.24-rc):
+ Tor 0.2.3.24-rc comes hard at the heels of 0.2.4.4-alpha, to fix two
+ important security vulnerabilities that could lead to remotely
+ triggerable relay crashes, fixes a major bug that was preventing
+ clients from choosing good exit nodes, and refactor some of our code.

+ o Major bugfixes (security, also in 0.2.3.24-rc):
+ - Fix a group of remotely triggerable assertion failures related to
+ incorrect link protocol negotiation. Found, diagnosed, and fixed

an exit relay would allow exiting to an internal address. Fixes
bug 7190; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
- o Code simplification and refactoring:
- - Start using OpenBSD's implementation of queue.h (originally by Niels
- Provos).
- - Move the entry node code from circuitbuild.c to its own file.
- - Move the circuit build timeout tracking code from circuitbuild.c
- to its own file.

o Minor bugfixes:
- Only disable TLS session ticket support when running as a TLS
server. This keeps clients harder to distinguish from regular firefox
connections. Fixes bug 7189; bugfix on Tor 0.2.3.23-rc.
