+Changes in version 0.4.4.6 - 2020-11-12 Tor 0.4.4.6 is the second stable
+ release in the 0.4.4.x series. It backports fixes from later releases,
+ including a fix for TROVE-2020-005, a security issue that could be used,
+ under certain cases, by an adversary to observe traffic patterns on a
+ limited number of circuits intended for a different relay.
+
+ o Minor features (directory authorities, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+ - Authorities now list a different set of protocols as required and
+ recommended. These lists have been chosen so that only truly
+ recommended and/or required protocols are included, and so that
+ clients using 0.2.9 or later will continue to work (even though
+ they are not supported), whereas only relays running 0.3.5 or
+ later will meet the requirements. Closes ticket 40162.
+ - Make it possible to specify multiple ConsensusParams torrc lines.
+ Now directory authority operators can for example put the main
+ ConsensusParams config in one torrc file and then add to it from a
+ different torrc file. Closes ticket 40164.
+
+ o Minor features (subprotocol versions, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+ - Tor no longer allows subprotocol versions larger than 63.
+ Previously version numbers up to UINT32_MAX were allowed, which
+ significantly complicated our code. Implements proposal 318;
+ closes ticket 40133.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+ - Remove a debug logging statement that uselessly spammed the logs.
+ Fixes bug 40135; bugfix on 0.3.5.0-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+ - Fix compiler warnings that would occur when building with
+ "--enable-all-bugs-are-fatal" and "--disable-module-relay" at the
+ same time. Fixes bug 40129; bugfix on 0.4.4.1-alpha.
+ - Resolve a compilation warning that could occur in
+ test_connection.c. Fixes bug 40113; bugfix on 0.2.9.3-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (relay configuration, crash, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+ - Avoid a fatal assert() when failing to create a listener
+ connection for an address that was in use. Fixes bug 40073; bugfix
+ on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (security, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+ - When completing a channel, relays now check more thoroughly to
+ make sure that it matches any pending circuits before attaching
+ those circuits. Previously, address correctness and Ed25519
+ identities were not checked in this case, but only when extending
+ circuits on an existing channel. Fixes bug 40080; bugfix on
+ 0.2.7.2-alpha. Resolves TROVE-2020-005.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (v2 onion services, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+ - For HSFETCH commands on v2 onion services addresses, check the
+ length of bytes decoded, not the base32 length. Fixes bug 34400;
+ bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha. Patch by Neel Chauhan.
+
+ o Minor features (tests, v2 onion services, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+ - Fix a rendezvous cache unit test that was triggering an underflow
+ on the global rend cache allocation. Fixes bug 40125; bugfix
+ on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
+ - Fix another rendezvous cache unit test that was triggering an
+ underflow on the global rend cache allocation. Fixes bug 40126;
+ bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
