It fixes + several bugs, including one that broke onion services on certain older + ARM CPUs, and another that made v3 onion services less reliable. + + Though we anticipate that we'll be doing a bit more clean-up between + now and the stable release, we expect that our remaining changes will + be fairly simple. There will be at least one more release candidate + before 0.4.5.x is stable. + + o Major bugfixes (onion service v3): + - Stop requiring a live consensus for v3 clients and services, and + allow a "reasonably live" consensus instead. This allows v3 onion + services to work even if the authorities fail to generate a + consensus for more than 2 hours in a row. Fixes bug 40237; bugfix + on 0.3.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor features (crypto): + - Fix undefined behavior on our Keccak library. The bug only + appeared on platforms with 32-byte CPU cache lines (e.g. armv5tel) + and would result in wrong digests. Fixes bug 40210; bugfix on + 0.2.8.1-alpha. Thanks to Bernhard Übelacker, Arnd Bergmann and + weasel for diagnosing this. + + o Minor features (documentation): + - Mention the "!badexit" directive that can appear in an authority's + approved-routers file, and update the description of the + "!invalid" directive. Closes ticket 40188. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation): + - Fix a compilation warning about unreachable fallthrough + annotations when building with "--enable-all-bugs-are-fatal" on + some compilers. Fixes bug 40241; bugfix on 0.3.5.4-alpha. + - Fix the "--enable-static-tor" switch to properly set the "-static" + compile option onto the tor binary only. Fixes bug 40111; bugfix + on 0.2.3.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (config, bridge): + - Really fix the case where torrc has a missing ClientTransportPlugin + but is configured with a Bridge line and UseBridges. Previously, + we didn't look at the managed proxy list and thus would fail for + the "exec" case. Fixes bug 40106; bugfix on 0.4.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging, relay): + - Log our address as reported by the directory authorities, if none + was configured or detected before. Fixes bug 40201; bugfix + on 0.4.5.1-alpha. + - When a launching bandwidth testing circuit, don't incorrectly call + it a reachability test, or trigger a "CHECKING_REACHABILITY" + control event. Fixes bug 40205; bugfix on 0.4.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay, statistics): + - Report the correct connection statistics in our extrainfo + documents. Previously there was a problem in the file loading + function which would wrongly truncate a state file, causing the + wrong information to be reported. Fixes bug 40226; bugfix + on 0.4.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (SOCKS5): + - Handle partial SOCKS5 messages correctly. Previously, our code + would send an incorrect error message if it got a SOCKS5 request + that wasn't complete. Fixes bug 40190; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. + + Changes in version 0.4.5.2-alpha - 2020-11-23 Tor 0.4.5.2-alpha is the second alpha release in the 0.4.5.x series. It fixes several bugs present in earlier releases, including one that
