CVE-2015-7547 Tor network stats
by nusenu 23 Feb '16

23 Feb '16

Hi, if we assume for simplicity that every relay running Linux that has not rebooted since 2016-02-16 is vulnerable to CVE-2015-7547, than these are the current stats (optimistic, because we assume that everyone that rebooted did also update). Vulnerable relays: +------------+------------------+-----------------+ | cwfraction | guardprobability | exitprobability | +------------+------------------+-----------------+ | 0.586 | 0.639 | 0.518 | +------------+------------------+-----------------+ (1=100%) Apply patches and reboot. Debian https://www.debian.org/security/2016/dsa-3481 RHEL/CentOS https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-0176.html Ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-2900-1/

does the Tor network scale well ?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Given the numbers of https://torstatus.blutmagie.de/index.php there are about 40 Tor exits which covers 1/3 of the whole bandwidth of all exit relays.

by tor-admin＠torland.me 21 Feb '16

21 Feb '16

Hi all, since I upgraded the torland relay from 2.6.7 to 0.2.7.6 I get the following warnings: 09:20:30 [WARN] Failing because we have 4063 connections already. Please read doc/TUNING for guidance. [101144347 similar message(s) suppressed in last 21600 seconds] Google only spits out https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/16929 which does not help me. I don't find the mentioned branch bug16929 in git. Can someone please advise what has to be done to avoid the warning, or point me where I find can the file "doc/TUNING". Thanks torland

routing script
by Markus Koch 19 Feb '16

19 Feb '16

Hi, after having four entry/middle nodes online I would like to help out with an exit node. Unfortunately you will get in a lot of trouble in Germany for hosting an exit node. I spoke with an VPN provider and they are okay with routing tor traffic over their VPN as long I have exit rulez etc. The only thing I need is a routing script for Debian to route all the Tor traffic over the VPN. Anyone can help me out with this? Markus

Mexico ISP blocking authority nodes and preventing exit relays.
by Ricardo Malagon Jerez 18 Feb '16

18 Feb '16

I don't know how and why, but since January is impossible to have an exit relay in Telmex ISP. And is harder to reach authority nodes. Someone wrote about this, but is mid February and is the same. Tor 2.8 alpha works pretty good with the authority fallback measures, but I can't implement the exit relay or publish the relay.

Could someone with a solid understanding of how the Tor daemon interacts with DNS comment on whether and how CVE-2015-7547 (glibc DNS response buffer overflow, remotely exploitable) the bug impacts relay running under Linux?

Relays with misconfigured MyFamily (declared vs. effective)
