Closes ticket 24803. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the December 5 2018 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. Closes ticket 28744. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation): + - Add missing dependency on libgdi32.dll for tor-print-ed-signing- + cert.exe on Windows. Fixes bug 28485; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (continuous integration, Windows): + - Explicitly specify the path to the OpenSSL library and do not + download OpenSSL from Pacman, but instead use the library that is + already provided by AppVeyor. Fixes bug 28574; bugfix on master. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion service v3): + - When deleting an ephemeral onion service (DEL_ONION), do not close + any rendezvous circuits in order to let the existing client + connections finish by themselves or closed by the application. The + HS v2 is doing that already so now we have the same behavior for + all versions. Fixes bug 28619; bugfix on 0.3.3.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (restart-in-process, boostrap): + - Add missing resets of bootstrap tracking state when shutting down + (regression caused by ticket 27169). Fixes bug 28524; bugfix + on 0.3.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing): + - Use a separate DataDirectory for the test_rebind script. + Previously, this script would run using the default DataDirectory, + and sometimes fail. Fixes bug 28562; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. + Patch from Taylor R Campbell. + - Stop leaking memory in an entry guard unit test. Fixes bug 28554; + bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (Windows): + - Correctly identify Windows 8.1, Windows 10, and Windows Server + 2008 and later from their NT versions. Fixes bug 28096; bugfix on + 0.2.2.34; reported by Keifer Bly. + - On recent Windows versions, the GetVersionEx() function may report + an earlier Windows version than the running OS. To avoid user + confusion, add "[or later]" to Tor's version string on affected + versions of Windows. Fixes bug 28096; bugfix on 0.2.2.34; reported + by Keifer Bly. + - Remove Windows versions that were never supported by the + GetVersionEx() function. Stop duplicating the latest Windows + version in get_uname(). Fixes bug 28096; bugfix on 0.2.2.34; + reported by Keifer Bly. + + o Testing: + - Increase logging and tag all log entries with timestamps in + test_rebind.py. Provides diagnostics for issue 28229. + + o Code simplification and refactoring (shared random, dirauth): + - Change many tor_assert() to use BUG() instead. The idea is to not + crash a dirauth but rather scream loudly with a stacktrace and let + it continue run. The shared random subsystem is very resilient and + if anything wrong happens with it, at worst a non coherent value + will be put in the vote and discarded by the other authorities. + Closes ticket 19566. + + o Documentation (onion services): + - Document in the man page that changing ClientOnionAuthDir value or + adding a new file in the directory will not work at runtime upon + sending a HUP if Sandbox 1. Closes ticket 28128. + - Note in the man page that the only real way to fully revoke an + onion service v3 client authorization is by restarting the tor + process. Closes ticket 28275. + + Changes in version 0.3.5.5-alpha - 2018-11-16 Tor 0.3.5.5-alpha includes numerous bugfixes on earlier releases, including several that we hope to backport to older release series in
