Apart from that, uneeded BUG warnings have been + suppressed especially about a compression bomb seen on relays. We strongly + recommend, in particular onion service operators, to upgrade as soon as + possible to this latest stable. + + o Major bugfixes (onion service): + - Fix a reliability issue where services were expiring their + introduction points every consensus update.

Fixes bug 40858; bugfix on 0.4.7.5-alpha. + + o Minor features (debugging, compression): + - Log the input and output buffer sizes when we detect a potential + compression bomb. Diagnostic for ticket 40739. + + o Minor features (fallbackdir): + - Regenerate fallback directories generated on September 18, 2023. + + o Minor features (geoip data): + - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as + retrieved on 2023/09/18. + + o Minor bugfix (defensive programming): + - Disable multiple BUG warnings of a missing relay identity key when + starting an instance of Tor compiled without relay support. Fixes + bug 40848; bugfix on 0.4.3.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (bridge authority): + - When reporting a pseudo-networkstatus as a bridge authority, or + answering "ns/purpose/*" controller requests, include accurate + published-on dates from our list of router descriptors. Fixes bug + 40855; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compression, zstd): + - Use less frightening language and lower the log-level of our run- + time ABI compatibility check message in our Zstd compression + subsystem.
