Now relays only return one of two possible DNS TTL + values, and clients are willing to believe DNS TTL values up to 3 + hours long. Closes ticket 19769. + + o Major bugfixes (crash, directory connections, backport from 0.3.0.5-rc): + - Fix a rare crash when sending a begin cell on a circuit whose + linked directory connection had already been closed. Fixes bug + 21576; bugfix on 0.2.9.3-alpha. Reported by Alec Muffett. + + o Major bugfixes (DNS, backport from 0.3.0.2-alpha): + - Fix a bug that prevented exit nodes from caching DNS records for + more than 60 seconds. Fixes bug 19025; bugfix on 0.2.4.7-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (linux TPROXY support, backport from 0.3.1.1-alpha): + - Fix a typo that had prevented TPROXY-based transparent proxying + from working under Linux. Fixes bug 18100; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha. + Patch from "d4fq0fQAgoJ". + + o Major bugfixes (openbsd, denial-of-service, backport from 0.3.1.5-alpha): + - Avoid an assertion failure bug affecting our implementation of + inet_pton(AF_INET6) on certain OpenBSD systems whose strtol() + handling of "0xfoo" differs from what we had expected. Fixes bug + 22789; bugfix on 0.2.3.8-alpha. Also tracked as TROVE-2017-007. + + o Minor features (code style, backport from 0.3.1.3-alpha): + - Add "Falls through" comments to our codebase, in order to silence + GCC 7's -Wimplicit-fallthrough warnings. Patch from Andreas + Stieger. Closes ticket 22446. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the September 6 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. + + o Minor bugfixes (bandwidth accounting, backport from 0.3.1.1-alpha): + - Roll over monthly accounting at the configured hour and minute, + rather than always at 00:00. Fixes bug 22245; bugfix on 0.0.9rc1. + Found by Andrey Karpov with PVS-Studio. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.1.5-alpha): + - Suppress -Wdouble-promotion warnings with clang 4.0. Fixes bug 22915; + bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. + - Fix warnings when building with libscrypt and openssl scrypt support + on Clang. Fixes bug 22916; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha. + - When building with certain versions the mingw C header files, avoid + float-conversion warnings when calling the C functions isfinite(), + isnan(), and signbit(). Fixes bug 22801; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.1.7): + - Avoid compiler warnings in the unit tests for running tor_sscanf() + with wide string outputs. Fixes bug 15582; bugfix on 0.2.6.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, mingw, backport from 0.3.1.1-alpha): + - Backport a fix for an "unused variable" warning that appeared + in some versions of mingw. Fixes bug 22838; bugfix on + 0.2.8.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (controller, backport from 0.3.1.7): + - Do not crash when receiving a HSPOST command with an empty body. + Fixes part of bug 22644; bugfix on 0.2.7.1-alpha. + - Do not crash when receiving a POSTDESCRIPTOR command with an + empty body. Fixes part of bug 22644; bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (coverity build support, backport from 0.3.1.5-alpha): + - Avoid Coverity build warnings related to our BUG() macro. By + default, Coverity treats BUG() as the Linux kernel does: an + instant abort(). We need to override that so our BUG() macro + doesn't prevent Coverity from analyzing functions that use it. + Fixes bug 23030; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (defensive programming, undefined behavior, backport from 0.3.1.4-alpha): + - Fix a memset() off the end of an array when packing cells. This + bug should be harmless in practice, since the corrupted bytes are + still in the same structure, and are always padding bytes, + ignored, or immediately overwritten, depending on compiler + behavior. Nevertheless, because the memset()'s purpose is to make + sure that any other cell-handling bugs can't expose bytes to the + network, we need to fix it. Fixes bug 22737; bugfix on + 0.2.4.11-alpha. Fixes CID 1401591. + + o Minor bugfixes (file limits, osx, backport from 0.3.1.5-alpha): + - When setting the maximum number of connections allowed by the OS, + always allow some extra file descriptors for other files. Fixes + bug 22797; bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (linux seccomp2 sandbox, backport from 0.3.1.5-alpha): + - Avoid a sandbox failure when trying to re-bind to a socket and + mark it as IPv6-only. Fixes bug 20247; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (linux seccomp2 sandbox, backport from 0.3.1.4-alpha): + - Permit the fchmod system call, to avoid crashing on startup when + starting with the seccomp2 sandbox and an unexpected set of + permissions on the data directory or its contents. Fixes bug + 22516; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay, backport from 0.3.0.5-rc): + - Avoid a double-marked-circuit warning that could happen when we + receive DESTROY cells under heavy load. Fixes bug 20059; bugfix + on 0.1.0.1-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (voting consistency, backport from 0.3.1.1-alpha): + - Reject version numbers with non-numeric prefixes (such as +, -, or + whitespace). Disallowing whitespace prevents differential version + parsing between POSIX-based and Windows platforms. Fixes bug 21507 + and part of 21508; bugfix on 0.0.8pre1. + + o Build features: + - Tor's repository now includes a Travis Continuous Integration (CI) + configuration file (.travis.yml). This is meant to help new + developers and contributors who fork Tor to a Github repository be + better able to test their changes, and understand what we expect + to pass. To use this new build feature, you must fork Tor to your + Github account, then go into the "Integrations" menu in the + repository settings for your fork and enable Travis, then push + your changes. Closes ticket 22636. + + Changes in version 0.2.9.11 - 2017-06-08 Tor 0.2.9.11 backports a fix for a bug that would allow an attacker to remotely crash a hidden service with an assertion failure.
