commit dd68d596cdf68999c0cb4c0caf594d8580eaba40 Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@torproject.org> Date: Tue Jan 31 16:09:49 2012 -0500 Set IPV6_V6ONLY on listener sockets bound to IPv6 addresses. If we don't do this, [::] can be interpreted to mean all v4 and all v6 addresses. Found by dcf. Fixes bug 4760. See RFC 3493 section 5.3 for more info. --- changes/bug4760 | 4 ++++ src/or/connection.c | 19 +++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/changes/bug4760 b/changes/bug4760 new file mode 100644 index 0000000..ea8d16e --- /dev/null +++ b/changes/bug4760 @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ + o Minor bugfixes: + - When binding to an IPv6 address, set the IPV6_V6ONLY socket + option, so that the IP stack doesn't decide to use it for IPv4 + too.
