commit b7c172c9ec762363562220a354feefc521970d7c Author: Nick Mathewson nickm@torproject.org Date: Mon Aug 27 11:16:44 2012 -0400
Disable extending to private/internal addresses by default
This is important, since otherwise an attacker can use timing info to probe the internal network.
Also, add an option (ExtendAllowPrivateAddresses) so that TestingTorNetwork won't break.
