o Major features (security)
- - Implementation of SocksSocket option - SocksSocket implements a SOCKS
+ - Implementation of an AF_UNIX socket option to implement a SOCKS
proxy reachable by Unix Domain Socket. This allows client applications to
communicate with Tor without having the ability to create AF_INET or
AF_INET6 family sockets. If an application has permission to create a socket
with AF_UNIX, it may directly communicate with Tor as if it were an other
SOCKS proxy. This should allow high risk applications to be entirely prevented
from connecting directly with TCP/IP, they will be able to only connect to the
- internet through AF_UNIX and only through Tor. Closes ticket 12585.
+ internet through AF_UNIX and only through Tor.
+ To create a socket of this type, use the syntax "unix:/path/to/socket".
