+ o Security fixes:
+
+ - Reject CREATE and CREATE_FAST cells on outgoing OR connections
+ from a bridge to a relay. Previously, we would accept them and
+ handle them normally, thereby allowing a malicious relay to
+ easily distinguish bridges which connect to it from clients.
+ Fixes CVE-2011-2769. Bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha, when bridges were
+ implemented; found by frosty_un.
