Hi! This coming week, we'll be putting out new stable releases for 0.2.9 and later supported branches to fix a few security bugs. The highest-severity bug to be fixed is severity "medium". (See https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/Security... for information about how we rank security issues.) These releases will also backport the anti-DoS features from Tor 0.3.3. Relays and authorities should be sure to upgrade once packages are available; these issues are not high-priority for clients. best wishes, -- Nick

Thanks for the heads-up. Since you specifically mentioned new **stable** releases and alpha branches have been treated differently in the past I was wondering whether this affects 0.3.3.x as well and if it will get an update on the same date or if 033 is not affected. And since you excluded 025LTS (supported until 2018-05-01) I assume it is not affected. thanks, nusenu -- https://mastodon.social/@nusenu twitter: @nusenu_

to answer this myself: 0.3.3.x appears to be affected as well (from what we can see in pre-release changelogs placehoders) -- https://mastodon.social/@nusenu twitter: @nusenu_
Can anyone provide a list of the specific versions in each branch that contain the DoS mitigations? I'll be switching several Ubuntu relays from the alpha branch back to the main branch, but don't know which version to look for. I don't want to switch until I know the main branch has the package with DoS mitigations.

0.3.3.2-alpha was the first released version with that feature, and the soon to be released stable version will contain it as well. So if you switch back from alpha you should wait for Tor v0.3.2.10 -- https://mastodon.social/@nusenu twitter: @nusenu_

Hi Any E.T.A for v0.3.2.10 to reach deb.torproject.org ?
