It should be more resistant to fingerprinting + than previous protocols, and should require less TLS hacking for + future Tor implementations. Implements Proposal 185. + - Allow variable-length padding cells to disguise the length of + Tor's TLS records. Implements part of Proposal 184. + + o Major bugfixes (hidden services): + - Don't launch a useless circuit after failing to use one of a + hidden service's introduction points. Previously, we would + launch a new introduction circuit, but not set the hidden service + which that circuit was intended to connect to, so it would never + actually be used. A different piece of code would then create a + new introduction circuit correctly, so this bug was harmless until + it caused an assertion in the client-side part of the #3825 fix + to fail. Bug reported by katmagic and found by Sebastian Hahn. + Bugfix on 0.2.1.13-alpha; fixes bug 4212. + - When one of a hidden service's introduction points appears to be + unreachable, stop trying it. Previously, we would keep trying + to build circuits to the introduction point until we lost the + descriptor, usually because the user gave up and restarted Tor. + Partly fixes bug 3825. + - When an attempt to connect to a hidden service ends, consider + refetching its hidden service descriptors from each of the HSDir + relays responsible for them immediately. Previously, we would not + consider refetching the service's descriptors from each HSDir for + 15 minutes after the last fetch; this behaviour was inconvenient + if the hidden service was not running during the first attempt, + for example. Bugfix on 0.2.0.18-alpha; fixes bug 3335. + + o Major bugfixes (other): + - Don't update the AccountingSoftLimitHitAt state file entry whenever + tor gets started. This prevents a wrong average bandwidth + estimate, which would cause relays to always start a new accounting + interval at the earliest possible moment. Fixes bug 2003; bugfix + on 0.2.2.7-alpha. Reported by BryonEldridge, who also helped + immensely in tracking this bug down. + - Fix a crash bug when changing node restrictions while a DNS lookup + is in-progress. Fixes bug 4259; bugfix on 0.2.2.25-alpha. Bugfix + by "Tey'". + + o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.3.x): + - Fix a bug in configure.in that kept it from building a configure + script with autoconf versions earlier than 2.61. Fixes bug 2430; + bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha. + - Don't warn users that they are exposing a client port to the + Internet if they have specified an RFC1918 address. Previously, + we would warn if the user had specified any non-loopback + address. Bugfix on 0.2.3.3-alpha. Fixes bug 4018; reported by Tas. + + o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.2.x and earlier): + - When one of a hidden service's introduction points times out, + consider trying it again during the next attempt to connect to + the HS. Previously, we would not try it again unless a newly + fetched descriptor contained it. Required by fixes for bugs + 1297 and 3825. + - Rephrase the log message emitted if the TestSocks check is + successful. Patch from Fabian Keil; fixes bug 4094. + - Bridges now skip DNS self-tests, to act a little more stealthily. + Fixes bug 4201; bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha, which first introduced + bridges. Patch by "warms0x". + - When a hidden service turns an extra service-side introduction + circuit into a general-purpose circuit, free the rend_data and + intro_key fields first, so we won't leak memory if the circuit + is cannibalized for use as another service-side introduction + circuit. Bugfix on 0.2.1.7-alpha; fixes bug 4251. + + o Minor features: + - The next version of Windows will be called Windows 8, and it has + a major version of 6, minor version of 2. Correctly identify that + version instead of calling it "Very recent version". Resolves + ticket 4153; reported by funkstar. + - The bridge authority now writes statistics on how many bridge + descriptors it gave out in total, and how many unique descriptors + it gave out. Implements ticket 4200. + - Update to the October 4 2011 Maxmind GeoLite Country database. + + o Code simplifications and refactoring: + - Remove the ability to define TRACK_SERVED_TIME. The feature + wasn't used and is now outdated that microdescriptors are around. + - Rename Tor functions that turn strings into addresses, so that + "parse" indicates that no hostname resolution occurs, and + "lookup" indicates that hostname resolution may occur. This + should help prevent mistakes in the future. Fixes bug 3512. + + Changes in version 0.2.3.5-alpha - 2011-09-28 Tor 0.2.3.5-alpha fixes two bugs that make it possible to enumerate bridge relays; fixes an assertion error that many users started hitting diff --git a/changes/bug1297b b/changes/bug1297b deleted file mode 100644 index 6b0169d..0000000 --- a/changes/bug1297b +++ /dev/null @@ -1,8 +0,0 @@ - o Minor bugfixes: - - - When one of a hidden service's introduction points times out, - consider trying it again during the next attempt to connect to - the HS.
