commit d13389b30ec2e17a8f08a00f82fac420ae968cd1 Author: Roger Dingledine <arma@torproject.org> Date: Sun Jul 1 17:36:35 2012 -0400 Revert "Detect bug 6252 (unexpected sendme cell)" This reverts commit c32ec9c425e9539bcc8ede95612e2d331c2cc2dd. It turns out the two sides of the circuit don't actually stay in sync, so it is perfectly normal for the circuit window on the exit relay to grow to 2000+. We should fix that bug and then reconsider this patch. --- changes/bug6252 | 8 -------- src/or/relay.c | 14 -------------- 2 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) diff --git a/changes/bug6252 b/changes/bug6252 deleted file mode 100644 index 0d29203..0000000 --- a/changes/bug6252 +++ /dev/null @@ -1,8 +0,0 @@ - o Security fixes: - - Tear down the circuit if we get an unexpected SENDME cell.
