+Changes in version 0.2.9.11 - 2017-06-08
+  Tor 0.2.9.11 fixes a pair of bugs that would allow an attacker to
+  remotely crash a hidden service with an assertion failure. Anyone
+  running a hidden service should upgrade to this version, or to some
+  other version with fixes for TROVE-2017-004 and TROVE-2017-005.
+
+  Tor 0.2.9.11 also backports fixes for several key management bugs
+  that sometimes made relays unreliable, as well as several other
+  bugfixes described below.
+
+  o Major bugfixes (relay, link handshake, backport from 0.3.1.3-alpha):
+    - When performing the v3 link handshake on a TLS connection, report
+      that we have the x509 certificate that we actually used on that
+      connection, even if we have changed certificates since that
+      connection was first opened. Previously, we would claim to have
+      used our most recent x509 link certificate, which would sometimes
+      make the link handshake fail. Fixes one case of bug 22460; bugfix
+      on 0.2.3.6-alpha.
+
+  o Minor features (fallback directory list, backport from 0.3.1.3-alpha):
+    - Replace the 177 fallbacks originally introduced in Tor 0.2.9.8 in
+      December 2016 (of which ~126 were still functional) with a list of
+      151 fallbacks (32 new, 119 unchanged, 58 removed) generated in May
+      2017. Resolves ticket 21564.
+
+  o Minor features (future-proofing, backport from 0.3.0.7):
+    - Tor no longer refuses to download microdescriptors or descriptors if
+      they are listed as "published in the future".  This change will
+      eventually allow us to stop listing meaningful "published" dates
+      in microdescriptor consensuses, and thereby allow us to reduce the
+      resources required to download consensus diffs by over 50%.
+      Implements part of ticket 21642; implements part of proposal 275.
+
+  o Minor features (directory authorities, backport from 0.3.0.4-rc)
+    - Directory authorities now reject relays running versions
+      0.2.9.1-alpha through 0.2.9.4-alpha, because those relays
+      suffer from bug 20499 and don't keep their consensus cache
+      up-to-date. Resolves ticket 20509.
+
+  o Minor features (geoip):
+    - Update geoip and geoip6 to the May 2 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2
+      Country database.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (control port, backport from 0.3.0.6):
+    - The GETINFO extra-info/digest/<digest> command was broken because
+      of a wrong base16 decode return value check, introduced when
+      refactoring that API. Fixes bug 22034; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (correctness, backport from 0.3.1.3-alpha):
+    - Avoid undefined behavior when parsing IPv6 entries from the geoip6
+      file. Fixes bug 22490; bugfix on 0.2.4.6-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (Linux seccomp2 sandbox, backport from 0.3.0.7):
+    - The getpid() system call is now permitted under the Linux seccomp2
+      sandbox, to avoid crashing with versions of OpenSSL (and other
+      libraries) that attempt to learn the process's PID by using the
+      syscall rather than the VDSO code. Fixes bug 21943; bugfix
+      on 0.2.5.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (memory leak, directory authority, backport
+    from 0.3.1.2-alpha):
+    - When directory authorities reject a router descriptor due to
+      keypinning, free the router descriptor rather than leaking the
+      memory. Fixes bug 22370; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha.
+
