Dear All,

I understand that the updated package 0.0.14 is available in Debian 11 "bullseye" backports. Thank you!

Unfortunately I am running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS "jammy" on my two VPS and the most recent version available is 0.0.13. My previous attempt to get 0.0.13 backported into Ubuntu 20.04 LTS "focal" was not successful [1], therefore I see little room to get 0.0.14 into jammy or jammy backports.

On Fedora 35, 36 & 37 obfs4-0.0.11 is available. I am happy to see that a bug is filed [2] "obfs4-0.0.14 is available" and worked on.

At the moment I have no possibility to update obfs4proxy, unless I switch to Debian 11. One of my two hosters is only offering Debian 10 "buster", so even this would not help.

I have read the discussion on [3] and would be very happy to see obfs4proxy for Ubuntu and Fedora (if the folks at Fedora agree or maybe can help?) in the Tor Project repository.

In the meantime, until an update is available, please let me know whether I should shut down my two bridges.

Kind regards,

wurstsemmel

The upstream changelog is here: https://gitlab.com/yawning/obfs4/-/blob/master/ChangeLog But I understand is not easy to understand what the problem is from that changelog.
Indeed. BTW the fix was made 5 weeks ago, so I do assume, the (eg. Debian) package needed time to stabilize, or ?
Yes, it takes time to get updates into debian, we've being working on it since it was relased: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/pluggable-transports/obfs4/-/issues/40008
