Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 Replying to [comment:31 mikeperry]:
 > I also noticed that all of these patches demote the nsIProxyInfo member
 of nsSocketTransport2 from a nsCOMPtr to an unmanaged bare pointer. What
 was the reason for this change? Unless I'm missing some other far flung
 magic, I think this is a likely UAF due to the missing refcount
 management?

 You're right -- that was a mistake. Here's the new version:
 https://github.com/arthuredelstein/tor-
 browser/commit/bcbe56c40ae214449d4269de63cf9a219e5ec7df

 (Tested with meek.)
