Call for testing/review: obfsclient-0.0.2
by Yawning Angel 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

Hello all, I just tagged obfsclient v0.0.2 (Release) Download at: https://github.com/Yawning/obfsclient/archive/v0.0.2.tar.gz This is mostly a bug fix release that addresses issues found in testing/actual use. The code is quite stable now, and I have been using it for all of my tor for approximately 2 weeks. Changes since 0.0.1: * Change the command line arguments to match the obfsproxy counterparts. This fixes issue #31. * Apply pushback between each side of the proxied connection to limit the amount of data that can be buffered. This fixes issue #3. * Use bufferevent_write_buffer to save allocating/copying in obfs2/obfs3. This fixes issue #24. * Fix assertions primarily seen on abrupt connection close by disabling all reads on transition into the various SOCKS5 FLUSHING states. * Cleaned up the logging, and log SOCKS5 assertions to the log file. * Send a TTL EXPIRED SOCKS5 error on connection timeouts. * Fixed an assertion that occurred if the outgoing connection immediately failed (Eg: Network interface being down). * Darwin build fixes, pointed out by Jeroen Massar. * FreeBSD 8.x/9.0 build fix, pointed out by Fabian Keil. NB: Darwin builds require using liballium from git and not 0.0.1, due to a minor code change to a embedded dependency. It is also entirely possible that I broke this again via changes made since then, but I don't use Darwin at all. Assuming there are no major bugs, I am hoping that 0.0.3 will be a feature release so the pace should be less hectic. Questions, comments, feedback appreciated as always, -- Yawning Angel

Two torspec proposals
by Virgil Griffith 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

I have two proposals to add to the torspec.git. They are: (1) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3308162/230-quicken-tor2web-mode.txt (2) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3308162/231-remittance-addresses.txt If someone with commit rights will add them that'd be lovely and we can ignore the rest of this message. If not, I request permission to commit to torspec.git. My PGP is here and we can discuss setting up a password, etc: http://virgil.gr/1+Virgil_Griffith_pub.asc -V

Starting work on hidden services
by Helder Ribeiro 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

Hi everyone, I'm an undergraduate student at University of Campinas, in Brazil, starting now I'll be working all year, >=20h/week on research about and improvements to tor hidden services under the supervision of Prof. Diego F. Aranha. I'm generally very inexperienced both with Tor (I've been reading papers and specs, but don't know my way around the source yet) and with programming C in the real world (contrived class projects are basically all I've done), so there will be a lot to ramp up to. Given the above time and experience constraints, I want to 1. do something that is not urgent/blocking; 2. stay as far away as possible from security-sensitive code, and 3. bite off something that is doable, including ramp-up, within a semester. Going through the "Hidden Services need some love" blog post, I found the item "Analyze Hidden Service Circuit Establishment Timing With Torperf" fitting. From reading the tickets, it seems like I would need to add some instrumentation (#3459) and then do the measurements. Some questions: - Is there anything else that would fit the above constraints that you need done more? I'm starting to write the grant proposal (submission is in 2 weeks) and I can still change it to anything else. (I'll dedicate the same amount of time to the project this year regardless of having the grant approved.) - Who should I report to? - Assuming I stick to the timing analysis above, are there any specific questions that you would like the analysis to answer? Thanks a lot! Cheers, Helder

Hey Amin, Good to hear from you. As the first step try to download the latest stegotorus code: git clone https://github.com/zackw/stegotorus cd stegotorus git checkout tor-improve and try to compile it: autoreconf ./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=`pwd`&& make When you are successfully able to build it then, then I'll ask you to write a minor patch for Stegotorus to test your ability for being a successful GSoC candidate. > I will send the edited proposal to you in order to discuss it. > Again, I am so sorry for the delay. Sure, It is OK to submit a proposal to address the open tasks, however you need to show in your proposal that you understood the tasks and you have some idea about how to resolve them.

Re: [tor-dev] Stegotorus tickets
by vmon＠riseup.net 27 Mar '14

Hey Noah, I've updated the tickets: 8098, 8096. I don't know much about 8090, it is not coding related and hence seems irrelevant to GSoC. I made a ticket for the task we discussed as well: #11337: Reimplement (move relevant functions, delete extra redundant code) of pdfSteg.cc, swfSteg.cc, jsSteg.cc as children of FileStegMod] If you want me to update any other specific ticket to current status of Stegotorus please give me the specific ticket number (I'm a bit short of time in the congestion of end-of-month tasks). If you'd like us to go over the code related to your task together, schedule a meeting time using Google calendar: vmonmoonshine(a)gmail.com And we can discuss it on #tor-dev(a)irc.oftc.net Good luck, vmon Noah Rahman <selimthegrim(a)gmail.com> writes: > In the interim, I'll start looking at 8090, 8098, 8096 for the > challenge period.

For the "unluckiest 10%" with T=1000, having 3 guards is still better than having one, while with T=2000 the difference between 3 guards and 1 is less noticeable: https://www-users.cs.umn.edu/~hopper/unlucky_threeguard_threshold_bandwidth… Interestingly, though, for the median user with the higher thresholds, having one guard results in a higher median circuit bandwidth (because a user with 3 guards is more likely to have selected one guard close to the cutoff, dragging the typical performance down): https://www-users.cs.umn.edu/~hopper/threeguard_threshold_bandwidth.png ...but I don't think these results speak to this concern: > ** The reason I ask is because I suspect there is actually an interplay > between the current circuit build timeout code and the pool of 3 guards. > The CBT cutoff will tend to cause you to avoid whichever of your guards > may be temporarily overloaded at a given time. because TorPS is a python reimplementation of the circuit selection algorithm only and doesn't have any way to simulate the CBT logic: http://torps.github.io/ -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nicholas Hopper Associate Professor, Computer Science & Engineering, University of Minnesota Visiting Research Director, The Tor Project ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Using the HS protocol for unlinkability only
by Michael Rogers 26 Mar '14

26 Mar '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi all, (Please let me know if this belongs on tor-talk instead of here.) I'm working on a messaging app that uses Tor hidden services to provide unlinkability (from the point of view of a network observer) between users and their contacts. Users know who their contacts are, so we don't need mutual anonymity, just unlinkability. I wonder whether we need everything that the Tor hidden service protocol provides, or whether we might be able to save some bandwidth (for clients and the Tor network) and improve performance by using parts of the hidden service protocol in a different way. First of all, we may not need to publish hidden service descriptors in the HS directory, because we have a way for clients to exchange static information such as HS public keys out-of-band. Second, we may not need to use introduction points to protect services from DoS attacks - we can assume that users trust their contacts not to DoS them. Third, we may be able to reduce the number of hops in the client-service circuits, because we don't need mutual anonymity. This isn't the first app to use hidden services for unlinkability, so I expect this topic's come up before. Are there any discussions I should look at before coming up with hare-brained schemes to misuse the hidden service protocol?
