RFC: Using `utls` in meek_lite.
by Yawning Angel 24 Jan '19

24 Jan '19

Hello, I just pushed a change to obfs4proxy master to use `utls` to mask the ClientHello signature (currently Chrome 70.x). https://gitlab.com/yawning/obfs4/commit/4d453dab2120082b00bf6e63ab4aaeeda6b… I understand that this is being worked on for the original meek (see: https://bugs.torproject.org/29077) but I felt inspired and it was relatively easy to get something working. Caveats: * This is only lightly tested, and may be doing something wrong or distinct. It seems to work well enough to watch videos over it. YMMV. * Azure uses HTTP 2. Not really a problem. * `utls.HelloFirefox_Auto` will fail to handshake with Azure due to an incompatible group being negotiated. * `utls.HelloChrome_Auto` ironically fails to handshake with `google.com` in a standalone test case for me. * `utls.HelloIOS_Auto` seems to work in all cases, so I may switch to that before I tag. Questions, comments, feedback appreciated, -- Yawning Angel

Modifying Path Selection based on geography
by sarpedon montecarlo 22 Jan '19

22 Jan '19

Hello there. I recently started to do some modifications on tor path selection by using stem, torflow/op-addon and txtorconn. but as long as i enable __LeaveStreamsUnattached option, tor will not function properly. so i decided to hack the source for this feature i seek: custom country for each position: entry:{{entry country-code}} middle:{{middle country-code}} exit:{{country-code}} i really appreciate you guys give me some hint, that which part of the source i must start to hack? i have dived into circuitbuild.c and some other core/or modules but i am confused where to start. thanks in advance.

Reviewer for Bug #27491: Prefer IPv4 or IPv6 based on the number of failures
by Neel Chauhan 18 Jan '19

18 Jan '19

Hi tor-dev@ mailing list, I noticed the assigned reviewer for my bug/patch #27491 (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/27491 (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/27491)) mikeperry, has not yet reviewed my bug since he was assigned to my bug/patch back in December. I understand that not able to review bugs during the holiday season (for obvious reasons), but would someone, either mikeperry or another Tor developer be able to review this? I am aware that there is a code freeze for 0.4.0 and this (probably) won't get merged until at least February 15th, but I would really appreciate a reviewer. Thank You, Neel Chauhan === https://www.neelc.org/
