#19973: ReachableAddresses applied too broadly
------------------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: nickm | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: High | Milestone: Tor: 0.2.8.x-final
Component: Core Tor/Tor | Version: Tor: 0.2.8.2-alpha
Severity: Major | Keywords: regression path

------------------------------+--------------------------------
The ReachableAddresses filter should only apply when picking a first node.
But in 268608c in #17840 , it began to apply to the whole path.
This is bad for path selection, in proportion to the restrictiveness of
your ReachableAddresses filter. It's probably not a hard break, but it's
important to fix.
Teor found this issue and wrote a patch for it. It should go into an 028
release.
