With OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre6, these + ciphers are disabled by default. Closes ticket 27344. + + o Minor features (continuous integration, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Enable macOS builds in our Travis CI configuration. Closes + ticket 24629. + - Install libcap-dev and libseccomp2-dev so these optional + dependencies get tested on Travis CI. Closes ticket 26560. + - Run asciidoc during Travis CI. Implements ticket 27087. + - Use ccache in our Travis CI configuration. Closes ticket 26952. + + o Minor features (continuous integration, rust, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Use cargo cache in our Travis CI configuration. Closes + ticket 26952. + + o Minor features (controller, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - The control port now exposes the list of HTTPTunnelPorts and + ExtOrPorts via GETINFO net/listeners/httptunnel and + net/listeners/extor respectively. Closes ticket 26647. + + o Minor features (directory authorities, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Authorities no longer vote to make the subprotocol version + "LinkAuth=1" a requirement: it is unsupportable with NSS, and + hasn't been needed since Tor 0.3.0.1-alpha. Closes ticket 27286. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the August 7 2018 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. Closes ticket 27089. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - When compiling with --enable-openbsd-malloc or --enable-tcmalloc, + tell the compiler not to include the system malloc implementation. + Fixes bug 20424; bugfix on 0.2.0.20-rc. + - Don't try to use a pragma to temporarily disable the + -Wunused-const-variable warning if the compiler doesn't support + it. Fixes bug 26785; bugfix on 0.3.2.11. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Silence a spurious compiler warning on the GetAdaptersAddresses + function pointer cast. This issue is already fixed by 26481 in + 0.3.5 and later, by removing the lookup and cast. Fixes bug 27465; + bugfix on 0.2.3.11-alpha. + - Stop calling SetProcessDEPPolicy() on 64-bit Windows. It is not + supported, and always fails. Some compilers warn about the + function pointer cast on 64-bit Windows. Fixes bug 27461; bugfix + on 0.2.2.23-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, windows, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Don't link or search for pthreads when building for Windows, even + if we are using build environment (like mingw) that provides a + pthreads library. Fixes bug 27081; bugfix on 0.1.0.1-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (continuous integration, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - Skip a pair of unreliable key generation tests on Windows, until + the underlying issue in bug 26076 is resolved. Fixes bug 26830 and + bug 26853; bugfix on 0.2.7.3-rc and 0.3.2.1-alpha respectively. + + o Minor bugfixes (continuous integration, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Build with zstd on macOS. Fixes bug 27090; bugfix on 0.3.1.5-alpha. + - Pass the module flags to distcheck configure, and log the flags + before running configure. (Backported to 0.2.9 and later as a + precaution.) Fixes bug 27088; bugfix on 0.3.4.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (continuous integration, backport from 0.3.4.8): + - When a Travis build fails, and showing a log fails, keep trying to + show the other logs. Fixes bug 27453; bugfix on 0.3.4.7-rc. + - When we use echo in Travis, don't pass a --flag as the first + argument. Fixes bug 27418; bugfix on 0.3.4.7-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (directory authority, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - When voting for recommended versions, make sure that all of the + versions are well-formed and parsable. Fixes bug 26485; bugfix + on 0.1.1.6-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (linux seccomp2 sandbox, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Fix a bug in out sandboxing rules for the openat() syscall. + Previously, no openat() call would be permitted, which would break + filesystem operations on recent glibc versions. Fixes bug 25440; + bugfix on 0.2.9.15. Diagnosis and patch from Daniel Pinto. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - Improve the log message when connection initiators fail to + authenticate direct connections to relays. Fixes bug 26927; bugfix + on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion services, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Fix bug that causes services to not ever rotate their descriptors + if they were getting SIGHUPed often. Fixes bug 26932; bugfix + on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion services, backport from 0.3.4.8): + - Silence a spurious compiler warning in + rend_client_send_introduction(). Fixes bug 27463; bugfix + on 0.1.1.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (rust, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Backport test_rust.sh from master. Fixes bug 26497; bugfix + on 0.3.1.5-alpha. + - Consistently use ../../.. as a fallback for $abs_top_srcdir in + test_rust.sh. Fixes bug 27093; bugfix on 0.3.4.3-alpha. + - Stop setting $CARGO_HOME. cargo will use the user's $CARGO_HOME, or + $HOME/.cargo by default. Fixes bug 26497; bugfix on 0.3.1.5-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (single onion services, Tor2web, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - Log a protocol warning when single onion services or Tor2web clients + fail to authenticate direct connections to relays. + Fixes bug 26924; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - Disable core dumps in test_bt.sh, to avoid failures in "make + distcheck". Fixes bug 26787; bugfix on 0.2.5.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, chutney, backport from 0.3.4.8): + - When running make test-network-all, use the mixed+hs-v2 network. + (A previous fix to chutney removed v3 onion services from the + mixed+hs-v23 network, so seeing "mixed+hs-v23" in tests is + confusing.) Fixes bug 27345; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + - Before running make test-network-all, delete old logs and test + result files, to avoid spurious failures. Fixes bug 27295; bugfix + on 0.2.7.3-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, openssl compatibility): + - Our "tortls/cert_matches_key" unit test no longer relies on OpenSSL + internals. Previously, it relied on unsupported OpenSSL behavior in + a way that caused it to crash with OpenSSL 1.0.2p. Fixes bug 27226; + bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, openssl compatibility, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Our "tortls/cert_matches_key" unit test no longer relies on + OpenSSL internals. Previously, it relied on unsupported OpenSSL + behavior in a way that caused it to crash with OpenSSL 1.0.2p. + Fixes bug 27226; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (Windows, compilation, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Silence a compilation warning on MSVC 2017 and clang-cl. Fixes bug + 27185; bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.11 - 2018-07-13 + Tor 0.3.2.11 moves to a new bridge authority, meaning people running + bridge relays should upgrade. We also take this opportunity to backport + other minor fixes. + + o Directory authority changes: + - The "Bifroest" bridge authority has been retired; the new bridge + authority is "Serge", and it is operated by George from the + TorBSD project. Closes ticket 26771. + + o Directory authority changes (backport from 0.3.3.7): + - Add an IPv6 address for the "dannenberg" directory authority. + Closes ticket 26343. + + o Major bugfixes (directory authorities, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - When directory authorities read a zero-byte bandwidth file, they + would previously log a warning with the contents of an + uninitialised buffer. They now log a warning about the empty file + instead. Fixes bug 26007; bugfix on 0.2.2.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (onion service, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Correctly detect when onion services get disabled after HUP. Fixes + bug 25761; bugfix on 0.3.2.1. + + o Minor features (sandbox, backport from 0.3.3.4-alpha): + - Explicitly permit the poll() system call when the Linux + seccomp2-based sandbox is enabled: apparently, some versions of + libc use poll() when calling getpwnam(). Closes ticket 25313. + + o Minor feature (continuous integration, backport from 0.3.3.5-rc): + - Update the Travis CI configuration to use the stable Rust channel, + now that we have decided to require that. Closes ticket 25714. + + o Minor features (continuous integration, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Our .travis.yml configuration now includes support for testing the + results of "make distcheck". (It's not uncommon for "make check" + to pass but "make distcheck" to fail.) Closes ticket 25814. + - Our Travis CI configuration now integrates with the Coveralls + coverage analysis tool. Closes ticket 25818. + + o Minor features (relay, diagnostic, backport from 0.3.4.3-alpha): + - Add several checks to detect whether Tor relays are uploading + their descriptors without specifying why they regenerated them. + Diagnostic for ticket 25686. + + o Minor features (compilation, backport from 0.3.4.4-rc): + - When building Tor, prefer to use Python 3 over Python 2, and more + recent (contemplated) versions over older ones. Closes + ticket 26372. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the July 3 2018 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. Closes ticket 26674. + + o Minor bugfixes (correctness, client, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Upon receiving a malformed connected cell, stop processing the + cell immediately. Previously we would mark the connection for + close, but continue processing the cell as if the connection were + open. Fixes bug 26072; bugfix on 0.2.4.7-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (Linux seccomp2 sandbox, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Allow the nanosleep() system call, which glibc uses to implement + sleep() and usleep(). Fixes bug 24969; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, compatibility, backport from 0.3.4.4-rc): + - When running the hs_ntor_ref.py test, make sure only to pass + strings (rather than "bytes" objects) to the Python subprocess + module. Python 3 on Windows seems to require this. Fixes bug + 26535; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + - When running the ntor_ref.py test, make sure only to pass strings + (rather than "bytes" objects) to the Python subprocess module. + Python 3 on Windows seems to require this. Fixes bug 26535; bugfix + on 0.2.5.5-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compatibility, openssl, backport from 0.3.4.2-alpha): + - Work around a change in OpenSSL 1.1.1 where return values that + would previously indicate "no password" now indicate an empty + password. Without this workaround, Tor instances running with + OpenSSL 1.1.1 would accept descriptors that other Tor instances + would reject. Fixes bug 26116; bugfix on 0.2.5.16. + + o Minor bugfixes (documentation, backport from 0.3.3.5-rc): + - Document that the PerConnBW{Rate,Burst} options will fall back to + their corresponding consensus parameters only if those parameters + are set. Previously we had claimed that these values would always + be set in the consensus. Fixes bug 25296; bugfix on 0.2.2.7-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.4.4-rc): + - Fix a compilation warning on some versions of GCC when building + code that calls routerinfo_get_my_routerinfo() twice, assuming + that the second call will succeed if the first one did. Fixes bug + 26269; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (client, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Don't consider Tor running as a client if the ControlPort is open, + but no actual client ports are open. Fixes bug 26062; bugfix + on 0.2.9.4-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (hardening, backport from 0.3.4.2-alpha): + - Prevent a possible out-of-bounds smartlist read in + protover_compute_vote(). Fixes bug 26196; bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (C correctness, backport from 0.3.3.4-alpha): + - Fix a very unlikely (impossible, we believe) null pointer + dereference. Fixes bug 25629; bugfix on 0.2.9.15. Found by + Coverity; this is CID 1430932. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion service, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Fix a memory leak when a v3 onion service is configured and gets a + SIGHUP signal. Fixes bug 25901; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + - When parsing the descriptor signature, look for the token plus an + extra white-space at the end. This is more correct but also will + allow us to support new fields that might start with "signature". + Fixes bug 26069; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay, backport from 0.3.4.3-alpha): + - Relays now correctly block attempts to re-extend to the previous + relay by Ed25519 identity. Previously they would warn in this + case, but not actually reject the attempt. Fixes bug 26158; bugfix + on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay, crash, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Avoid a crash when running with DirPort set but ORPort turned off. + Fixes a case of bug 23693; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.4.2-alpha): + - Silence unused-const-variable warnings in zstd.h with some GCC + versions. Fixes bug 26272; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, backport from 0.3.3.4-alpha): + - Avoid intermittent test failures due to a test that had relied on + onion service introduction point creation finishing within 5 + seconds of real clock time. Fixes bug 25450; bugfix + on 0.3.1.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.3.4-alpha): + - Fix a C99 compliance issue in our configuration script that caused + compilation issues when compiling Tor with certain versions of + xtools. Fixes bug 25474; bugfix on 0.3.2.5-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (memory, correctness, backport from 0.3.4.4-rc): + - Fix a number of small memory leaks identified by coverity. Fixes + bug 26467; bugfix on numerous Tor versions. + + o Code simplification and refactoring (backport from 0.3.3.5-rc): + - Move the list of default directory authorities to its own file. + Closes ticket 24854. Patch by "beastr0". + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.10 - 2018-03-03 + Tor 0.3.2.10 is the second stable release in the 0.3.2 series. It + backports a number of bugfixes, including important fixes for security + issues. + + It includes an important security fix for a remote crash attack + against directory authorities, tracked as TROVE-2018-001. + + Additionally, it backports a fix for a bug whose severity we have + upgraded: Bug 24700, which was fixed in 0.3.3.2-alpha, can be remotely + triggered in order to crash relays with a use-after-free pattern. As + such, we are now tracking that bug as TROVE-2018-002 and + CVE-2018-0491, and backporting it to earlier releases. This bug + affected versions 0.3.2.1-alpha through 0.3.2.9, as well as version + 0.3.3.1-alpha. + + This release also backports our new system for improved resistance to + denial-of-service attacks against relays. + + This release also fixes several minor bugs and annoyances from + earlier releases. + + Relays running 0.3.2.x SHOULD upgrade to one of the versions released + today, for the fix to TROVE-2018-002. Directory authorities should + also upgrade. (Relays on earlier versions might want to update too for + the DoS mitigations.) + + o Major bugfixes (denial-of-service, directory authority, backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Fix a protocol-list handling bug that could be used to remotely crash + directory authorities with a null-pointer exception. Fixes bug 25074; + bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. Also tracked as TROVE-2018-001 and + CVE-2018-0490. + + o Major bugfixes (scheduler, KIST, denial-of-service, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Avoid adding the same channel twice in the KIST scheduler pending + list, which could lead to remote denial-of-service use-after-free + attacks against relays. Fixes bug 24700; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Major features (denial-of-service mitigation, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Give relays some defenses against the recent network overload. We + start with three defenses (default parameters in parentheses). + First: if a single client address makes too many concurrent + connections (>100), hang up on further connections. Second: if a + single client address makes circuits too quickly (more than 3 per + second, with an allowed burst of 90) while also having too many + connections open (3), refuse new create cells for the next while + (1-2 hours). Third: if a client asks to establish a rendezvous + point to you directly, ignore the request. These defenses can be + manually controlled by new torrc options, but relays will also + take guidance from consensus parameters, so there's no need to + configure anything manually. Implements ticket 24902. + + o Major bugfixes (onion services, retry behavior, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Fix an "off by 2" error in counting rendezvous failures on the + onion service side. While we thought we would stop the rendezvous + attempt after one failed circuit, we were actually making three + circuit attempts before giving up. Now switch to a default of 2, + and allow the consensus parameter "hs_service_max_rdv_failures" to + override. Fixes bug 24895; bugfix on 0.0.6. + - New-style (v3) onion services now obey the "max rendezvous circuit + attempts" logic. Previously they would make as many rendezvous + circuit attempts as they could fit in the MAX_REND_TIMEOUT second + window before giving up. Fixes bug 24894; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (protocol versions, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Add Link protocol version 5 to the supported protocols list. Fixes + bug 25070; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (relay, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Fix a set of false positives where relays would consider + connections to other relays as being client-only connections (and + thus e.g. deserving different link padding schemes) if those + relays fell out of the consensus briefly. Now we look only at the + initial handshake and whether the connection authenticated as a + relay. Fixes bug 24898; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (scheduler, consensus, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - The scheduler subsystem was failing to promptly notice changes in + consensus parameters, making it harder to switch schedulers + network-wide. Fixes bug 24975; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor features (denial-of-service avoidance, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Make our OOM handler aware of the geoip client history cache so it + doesn't fill up the memory. This check is important for IPv6 and + our DoS mitigation subsystem. Closes ticket 25122. + + o Minor features (compatibility, OpenSSL, backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Tor will now support TLS1.3 once OpenSSL 1.1.1 is released. + Previous versions of Tor would not have worked with OpenSSL 1.1.1, + since they neither disabled TLS 1.3 nor enabled any of the + ciphersuites it requires. Now we enable the TLS 1.3 ciphersuites. + Closes ticket 24978. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the February 7 2018 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. + + o Minor features (logging, diagnostic, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - When logging a failure to create an onion service's descriptor, + also log what the problem with the descriptor was. Diagnostic + for ticket 24972. + + o Minor bugfix (channel connection, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Use the actual observed address of an incoming relay connection, + not the canonical address of the relay from its descriptor, when + making decisions about how to handle the incoming connection. + Fixes bug 24952; bugfix on 0.2.4.11-alpha. Patch by "ffmancera". + + o Minor bugfixes (denial-of-service, backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Fix a possible crash on malformed consensus. If a consensus had + contained an unparseable protocol line, it could have made clients + and relays crash with a null-pointer exception. To exploit this + issue, however, an attacker would need to be able to subvert the + directory authority system. Fixes bug 25251; bugfix on + 0.2.9.4-alpha. Also tracked as TROVE-2018-004. + + o Minor bugfix (directory authority, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Directory authorities, when refusing a descriptor from a rejected + relay, now explicitly tell the relay (in its logs) to set a valid + ContactInfo address and contact the bad-relays@ mailing list. + Fixes bug 25170; bugfix on 0.2.9.1. + + o Minor bugfixes (build, rust, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - When building with Rust on OSX, link against libresolv, to work + around the issue at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/46797. + Fixes bug 24652; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion services, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Remove a BUG() statement when a client fetches an onion descriptor + that has a lower revision counter than the one in its cache. This + can happen in normal circumstances due to HSDir desync. Fixes bug + 24976; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Don't treat inability to store a cached consensus object as a bug: + it can happen normally when we are out of disk space. Fixes bug + 24859; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (performance, fragile-hardening, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Improve the performance of our consensus-diff application code + when Tor is built with the --enable-fragile-hardening option set. + Fixes bug 24826; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (OSX, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Don't exit the Tor process if setrlimit() fails to change the file + limit (which can happen sometimes on some versions of OSX). Fixes + bug 21074; bugfix on 0.0.9pre5. + + o Minor bugfixes (spec conformance, backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Forbid "-0" as a protocol version. Fixes part of bug 25249; bugfix on + 0.2.9.4-alpha. + - Forbid UINT32_MAX as a protocol version. Fixes part of bug 25249; + bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Fix a memory leak in the scheduler/loop_kist unit test. Fixes bug + 25005; bugfix on 0.3.2.7-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (v3 onion services, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Look at the "HSRend" protocol version, not the "HSDir" protocol + version, when deciding whether a consensus entry can support the + v3 onion service protocol as a rendezvous point. Fixes bug 25105; + bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Code simplification and refactoring (backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Update the "rust dependencies" submodule to be a project-level + repository, rather than a user repository. Closes ticket 25323. + + o Documentation (backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha) + - Document that operators who run more than one relay or bridge are + expected to set MyFamily and ContactInfo correctly. Closes + ticket 24526. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.9 - 2018-01-09 + Tor 0.3.2.9 is the first stable release in the 0.3.2 series. + + The 0.3.2 series includes our long-anticipated new onion service + design, with numerous security features. (For more information, see + our blog post at https://blog.torproject.org/fall-harvest.) We also + have a new circuit scheduler algorithm for improved performance on + relays everywhere (see https://blog.torproject.org/kist-and-tell), + along with many smaller features and bugfixes. + + Per our stable release policy, we plan to support each stable release + series for at least the next nine months, or for three months after + the first stable release of the next series: whichever is longer. If + you need a release with long-term support, we recommend that you stay + with the 0.2.9 series. + + Below is a list of the changes since 0.3.2.8-rc. For a list of all + changes since 0.3.1, see the ReleaseNotes file. + + o Minor features (fallback directory mirrors): + - The fallback directory list has been re-generated based on the + current status of the network. Tor uses fallback directories to + bootstrap when it doesn't yet have up-to-date directory + information. Closes ticket 24801. + - Make the default DirAuthorityFallbackRate 0.1, so that clients + prefer to bootstrap from fallback directory mirrors. This is a + follow-up to 24679, which removed weights from the default + fallbacks. Implements ticket 24681. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the January 5 2018 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. + + o Minor bugfixes (address selection): + - When the fascist_firewall_choose_address_ functions don't find a + reachable address, set the returned address to the null address + and port. This is a precautionary measure, because some callers do + not check the return value. Fixes bug 24736; bugfix + on 0.2.8.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation): + - Resolve a few shadowed-variable warnings in the onion service + code. Fixes bug 24634; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (portability, msvc): + - Fix a bug in the bit-counting parts of our timing-wheel code on + MSVC. (Note that MSVC is still not a supported build platform, due + to cyptographic timing channel risks.) Fixes bug 24633; bugfix + on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.8-rc - 2017-12-21 + Tor 0.3.2.8-rc fixes a pair of bugs in the KIST and KISTLite + schedulers that had led servers under heavy load to overload their + outgoing connections. All relay operators running earlier 0.3.2.x + versions should upgrade. This version also includes a mitigation for + over-full DESTROY queues leading to out-of-memory conditions: if it + works, we will soon backport it to earlier release series. + + This is the second release candidate in the 0.3.2 series. If we find + no new bugs or regression here, then the first stable 0.3.2 release + will be nearly identical to this. + + o Major bugfixes (KIST, scheduler): + - The KIST scheduler did not correctly account for data already + enqueued in each connection's send socket buffer, particularly in + cases when the TCP/IP congestion window was reduced between + scheduler calls. This situation lead to excessive per-connection + buffering in the kernel, and a potential memory DoS. Fixes bug + 24665; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the December 6 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. + + o Minor bugfixes (hidden service v3): + - Bump hsdir_spread_store parameter from 3 to 4 in order to increase + the probability of reaching a service for a client missing + microdescriptors. Fixes bug 24425; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (memory usage): + - When queuing DESTROY cells on a channel, only queue the circuit-id + and reason fields: not the entire 514-byte cell. This fix should + help mitigate any bugs or attacks that fill up these queues, and + free more RAM for other uses. Fixes bug 24666; bugfix + on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (scheduler, KIST): + - Use a sane write limit for KISTLite when writing onto a connection + buffer instead of using INT_MAX and shoving as much as it can. + Because the OOM handler cleans up circuit queues, we are better + off at keeping them in that queue instead of the connection's + buffer. Fixes bug 24671; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.7-rc - 2017-12-14 + Tor 0.3.2.7-rc fixes various bugs in earlier versions of Tor, + including some that could affect reliability or correctness. + + This is the first release candidate in the 0.3.2 series. If we find no + new bugs or regression here, then the first stable 0.3.2. release will + be nearly identical to this. + + o Major bugfixes (circuit prediction): + - Fix circuit prediction logic so that a client doesn't treat a port + as being "handled" by a circuit if that circuit already has + isolation settings on it. This change should make Tor clients more + responsive by improving their chances of having a pre-created + circuit ready for use when a request arrives. Fixes bug 18859; + bugfix on 0.2.3.3-alpha. + + o Minor features (logging): + - Provide better warnings when the getrandom() syscall fails. Closes + ticket 24500. + + o Minor features (portability): + - Tor now compiles correctly on arm64 with libseccomp-dev installed. + (It doesn't yet work with the sandbox enabled.) Closes + ticket 24424. + + o Minor bugfixes (bridge clients, bootstrap): + - Retry directory downloads when we get our first bridge descriptor + during bootstrap or while reconnecting to the network. Keep + retrying every time we get a bridge descriptor, until we have a + reachable bridge. Fixes part of bug 24367; bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha. + - Stop delaying bridge descriptor fetches when we have cached bridge + descriptors. Instead, only delay bridge descriptor fetches when we + have at least one reachable bridge. Fixes part of bug 24367; + bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha. + - Stop delaying directory fetches when we have cached bridge + descriptors. Instead, only delay bridge descriptor fetches when + all our bridges are definitely unreachable. Fixes part of bug + 24367; bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation): + - Fix a signed/unsigned comparison warning introduced by our fix to + TROVE-2017-009. Fixes bug 24480; bugfix on 0.2.5.16. + + o Minor bugfixes (correctness): + - Fix several places in our codebase where a C compiler would be + likely to eliminate a check, based on assuming that undefined + behavior had not happened elsewhere in the code. These cases are + usually a sign of redundant checking or dubious arithmetic. Found + by Georg Koppen using the "STACK" tool from Wang, Zeldovich, + Kaashoek, and Solar-Lezama. Fixes bug 24423; bugfix on various + Tor versions. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion service v3): + - Fix a race where an onion service would launch a new intro circuit + after closing an old one, but fail to register it before freeing + the previously closed circuit. This bug was making the service + unable to find the established intro circuit and thus not upload + its descriptor, thus making a service unavailable for up to 24 + hours. Fixes bug 23603; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (scheduler, KIST): + - Properly set the scheduler state of an unopened channel in the + KIST scheduler main loop. This prevents a harmless but annoying + log warning. Fixes bug 24502; bugfix on 0.3.2.4-alpha. + - Avoid a possible integer overflow when computing the available + space on the TCP buffer of a channel. This had no security + implications; but could make KIST allow too many cells on a + saturated connection. Fixes bug 24590; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + - Downgrade to "info" a harmless warning about the monotonic time + moving backwards: This can happen on platform not supporting + monotonic time. Fixes bug 23696; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.6-alpha - 2017-12-01 + This version of Tor is the latest in the 0.3.2 alpha series. It + includes fixes for several important security issues. All Tor users + should upgrade to this release, or to one of the other releases coming + out today. + + o Major bugfixes (security): + - Fix a denial of service bug where an attacker could use a + malformed directory object to cause a Tor instance to pause while + OpenSSL would try to read a passphrase from the terminal. (Tor + instances run without a terminal, which is the case for most Tor + packages, are not impacted.) Fixes bug 24246; bugfix on every + version of Tor. Also tracked as TROVE-2017-011 and CVE-2017-8821. + Found by OSS-Fuzz as testcase 6360145429790720. + - Fix a denial of service issue where an attacker could crash a + directory authority using a malformed router descriptor. Fixes bug + 24245; bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. Also tracked as TROVE-2017-010 + and CVE-2017-8820. + - When checking for replays in the INTRODUCE1 cell data for a + (legacy) onion service, correctly detect replays in the RSA- + encrypted part of the cell. We were previously checking for + replays on the entire cell, but those can be circumvented due to + the malleability of Tor's legacy hybrid encryption. This fix helps + prevent a traffic confirmation attack. Fixes bug 24244; bugfix on + 0.2.4.1-alpha. This issue is also tracked as TROVE-2017-009 + and CVE-2017-8819. + + o Major bugfixes (security, onion service v2): + - Fix a use-after-free error that could crash v2 Tor onion services + when they failed to open circuits while expiring introduction + points. Fixes bug 24313; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha. This issue is + also tracked as TROVE-2017-013 and CVE-2017-8823. + + o Major bugfixes (security, relay): + - When running as a relay, make sure that we never build a path + through ourselves, even in the case where we have somehow lost the + version of our descriptor appearing in the consensus. Fixes part + of bug 21534; bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha. This issue is also tracked + as TROVE-2017-012 and CVE-2017-8822. + - When running as a relay, make sure that we never choose ourselves + as a guard. Fixes part of bug 21534; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. This + issue is also tracked as TROVE-2017-012 and CVE-2017-8822. + + o Minor feature (relay statistics): + - Change relay bandwidth reporting stats interval from 4 hours to 24 + hours in order to reduce the efficiency of guard discovery + attacks. Fixes ticket 23856. + + o Minor features (directory authority): + - Add an IPv6 address for the "bastet" directory authority. Closes + ticket 24394. + + o Minor bugfixes (client): + - By default, do not enable storage of client-side DNS values. These + values were unused by default previously, but they should not have + been cached at all. Fixes bug 24050; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.5-alpha - 2017-11-22 + Tor 0.3.2.5-alpha is the fifth alpha release in the 0.3.2.x series. It + fixes several stability and reliability bugs, including a fix for + intermittent bootstrapping failures that some people have been seeing + since the 0.3.0.x series. + + Please test this alpha out -- many of these fixes will soon be + backported to stable Tor versions if no additional bugs are found + in them. + + o Major bugfixes (bootstrapping): + - Fetch descriptors aggressively whenever we lack enough to build + circuits, regardless of how many descriptors we are missing. + Previously, we would delay launching the fetch when we had fewer + than 15 missing descriptors, even if some of those descriptors + were blocking circuits from building. Fixes bug 23985; bugfix on + 0.1.1.11-alpha. The effects of this bug became worse in + 0.3.0.3-alpha, when we began treating missing descriptors from our + primary guards as a reason to delay circuits. + - Don't try fetching microdescriptors from relays that have failed + to deliver them in the past. Fixes bug 23817; bugfix + on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor features (directory authority): + - Make the "Exit" flag assignment only depend on whether the exit + policy allows connections to ports 80 and 443. Previously relays + would get the Exit flag if they allowed connections to one of + these ports and also port 6667. Resolves ticket 23637. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the November 6 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. + + o Minor features (linux seccomp2 sandbox): + - Update the sandbox rules so that they should now work correctly + with Glibc 2.26. Closes ticket 24315. + + o Minor features (logging): + - Downgrade a pair of log messages that could occur when an exit's + resolver gave us an unusual (but not forbidden) response. Closes + ticket 24097. + - Improve the message we log when re-enabling circuit build timeouts + after having received a consensus. Closes ticket 20963. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation): + - Fix a memory leak warning in one of the libevent-related + configuration tests that could occur when manually specifying + -fsanitize=address. Fixes bug 24279; bugfix on 0.3.0.2-alpha. + Found and patched by Alex Xu. + - When detecting OpenSSL on Windows from our configure script, make + sure to try linking with the ws2_32 library. Fixes bug 23783; + bugfix on 0.3.2.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (control port, linux seccomp2 sandbox): + - Avoid a crash when attempting to use the seccomp2 sandbox together + with the OwningControllerProcess feature. Fixes bug 24198; bugfix + on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (control port, onion services): + - Report "FAILED" instead of "UPLOAD_FAILED" "FAILED" for the + HS_DESC event when a service is not able to upload a descriptor. + Fixes bug 24230; bugfix on 0.2.7.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (directory cache): + - Recover better from empty or corrupt files in the consensus cache + directory. Fixes bug 24099; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + - When a consensus diff calculation is only partially successful, + only record the successful parts as having succeeded. Partial + success can happen if (for example) one compression method fails + but the others succeed. Previously we misrecorded all the + calculations as having succeeded, which would later cause a + nonfatal assertion failure. Fixes bug 24086; bugfix + on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging): + - Only log once if we notice that KIST support is gone. Fixes bug + 24158; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + - Suppress a log notice when relay descriptors arrive. We already + have a bootstrap progress for this so no need to log notice + everytime tor receives relay descriptors. Microdescriptors behave + the same. Fixes bug 23861; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (network layer): + - When closing a connection via close_connection_immediately(), we + mark it as "not blocked on bandwidth", to prevent later calls from + trying to unblock it, and give it permission to read. This fixes a + backtrace warning that can happen on relays under various + circumstances. Fixes bug 24167; bugfix on 0.1.0.1-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion services): + - The introduction circuit was being timed out too quickly while + waiting for the rendezvous circuit to complete. Keep the intro + circuit around longer instead of timing out and reopening new ones + constantly. Fixes bug 23681; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. + - Rename the consensus parameter "hsdir-interval" to "hsdir_interval" + so it matches dir-spec.txt. Fixes bug 24262; bugfix + on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + - Silence a warning about failed v3 onion descriptor uploads that + can happen naturally under certain edge cases. Fixes part of bug + 23662; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (tests): + - Fix a memory leak in one of the bridge-distribution test cases. + Fixes bug 24345; bugfix on 0.3.2.3-alpha. + - Fix a bug in our fuzzing mock replacement for crypto_pk_checksig(), + to correctly handle cases where a caller gives it an RSA key of + under 160 bits. (This is not actually a bug in Tor itself, but + rather in our fuzzing code.) Fixes bug 24247; bugfix on + 0.3.0.3-alpha. Found by OSS-Fuzz as issue 4177. + + o Documentation: + - Add notes in man page regarding OS support for the various + scheduler types. Attempt to use less jargon in the scheduler + section. Closes ticket 24254. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.4-alpha - 2017-11-08 + Tor 0.3.2.4-alpha is the fourth alpha release in the 0.3.2.x series. + It fixes several stability and reliability bugs, especially including + a major reliability issue that has been plaguing fast exit relays in + recent months. + + o Major bugfixes (exit relays, DNS): + - Fix an issue causing DNS to fail on high-bandwidth exit nodes, + making them nearly unusable. Fixes bugs 21394 and 18580; bugfix on + 0.1.2.2-alpha, which introduced eventdns. Thanks to Dhalgren for + identifying and finding a workaround to this bug and to Moritz, + Arthur Edelstein, and Roger for helping to track it down and + analyze it. + + o Major bugfixes (scheduler, channel): + - Stop processing scheduled channels if they closed while flushing + cells. This can happen if the write on the connection fails + leading to the channel being closed while in the scheduler loop. + Fixes bug 23751; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor features (logging, scheduler): + - Introduce a SCHED_BUG() function to log extra information about + the scheduler state if we ever catch a bug in the scheduler. + Closes ticket 23753. + + o Minor features (removed deprecations): + - The ClientDNSRejectInternalAddresses flag can once again be set in + non-testing Tor networks, so long as they do not use the default + directory authorities. This change also removes the deprecation of + this flag from 0.2.9.2-alpha. Closes ticket 21031. + + o Minor features (testing): + - Our fuzzing tests now test the encrypted portions of v3 onion + service descriptors. Implements more of 21509. + + o Minor bugfixes (directory client): + - On failure to download directory information, delay retry attempts + by a random amount based on the "decorrelated jitter" algorithm. + Our previous delay algorithm tended to produce extra-long delays + too easily. Fixes bug 23816; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (IPv6, v3 single onion services): + - Remove buggy code for IPv6-only v3 single onion services, and + reject attempts to configure them. This release supports IPv4, + dual-stack, and IPv6-only v3 onion services; and IPv4 and dual- + stack v3 single onion services. Fixes bug 23820; bugfix + on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging, relay): + - Give only a protocol warning when the ed25519 key is not + consistent between the descriptor and microdescriptor of a relay. + This can happen, for instance, if the relay has been flagged + NoEdConsensus. Fixes bug 24025; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (manpage, onion service): + - Document that the HiddenServiceNumIntroductionPoints option is + 0-10 for v2 services and 0-20 for v3 services. Fixes bug 24115; + bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (memory leaks): + - Fix a minor memory leak at exit in the KIST scheduler. This bug + should have no user-visible impact. Fixes bug 23774; bugfix + on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + - Fix a memory leak when decrypting a badly formatted v3 onion + service descriptor. Fixes bug 24150; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + Found by OSS-Fuzz; this is OSS-Fuzz issue 3994. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion services): + - Cache some needed onion service client information instead of + constantly computing it over and over again. Fixes bug 23623; + bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + - Properly retry HSv3 descriptor fetches when missing required + directory information. Fixes bug 23762; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (path selection): + - When selecting relays by bandwidth, avoid a rounding error that + could sometimes cause load to be imbalanced incorrectly. + Previously, we would always round upwards; now, we round towards + the nearest integer. This had the biggest effect when a relay's + weight adjustments should have given it weight 0, but it got + weight 1 instead. Fixes bug 23318; bugfix on 0.2.4.3-alpha. + - When calculating the fraction of nodes that have descriptors, and + all nodes in the network have zero bandwidths, count the number of + nodes instead. Fixes bug 23318; bugfix on 0.2.4.10-alpha. + - Actually log the total bandwidth in compute_weighted_bandwidths(). + Fixes bug 24170; bugfix on 0.2.4.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay, crash): + - Avoid a crash when transitioning from client mode to bridge mode. + Previously, we would launch the worker threads whenever our + "public server" mode changed, but not when our "server" mode + changed. Fixes bug 23693; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing): + - Fix a spurious fuzzing-only use of an uninitialized value. Found + by Brian Carpenter. Fixes bug 24082; bugfix on 0.3.0.3-alpha. + - Test that IPv6-only clients can use microdescriptors when running + "make test-network-all". Requires chutney master 61c28b9 or later. + Closes ticket 24109. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.3-alpha - 2017-10-27 + Tor 0.3.2.3-alpha is the third release in the 0.3.2 series. It fixes + numerous small bugs in earlier versions of 0.3.2.x, and adds a new + directory authority, Bastet. + + o Directory authority changes: + - Add "Bastet" as a ninth directory authority to the default list. + Closes ticket 23910. + - The directory authority "Longclaw" has changed its IP address. + Closes ticket 23592. + + o Minor features (bridge): + - Bridge relays can now set the BridgeDistribution config option to + add a "bridge-distribution-request" line to their bridge + descriptor, which tells BridgeDB how they'd like their bridge + address to be given out. (Note that as of Oct 2017, BridgeDB does + not yet implement this feature.) As a side benefit, this feature + provides a way to distinguish bridge descriptors from non-bridge + descriptors. Implements tickets 18329. + + o Minor features (client, entry guards): + - Improve log messages when missing descriptors for primary guards. + Resolves ticket 23670. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the October 4 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. + + o Minor bugfixes (bridge): + - Overwrite the bridge address earlier in the process of retrieving + its descriptor, to make sure we reach it on the configured + address. Fixes bug 20532; bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (documentation): + - Document better how to read gcov, and what our gcov postprocessing + scripts do. Fixes bug 23739; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (entry guards): + - Tor now updates its guard state when it reads a consensus + regardless of whether it's missing descriptors. That makes tor use + its primary guards to fetch descriptors in some edge cases where + it would previously have used fallback directories. Fixes bug + 23862; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (hidden service client): + - When handling multiple SOCKS request for the same .onion address, + only fetch the service descriptor once. + - When a descriptor fetch fails with a non-recoverable error, close + all pending SOCKS requests for that .onion. Fixes bug 23653; + bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (hidden service): + - Always regenerate missing hidden service public key files. Prior + to this, if the public key was deleted from disk, it wouldn't get + recreated. Fixes bug 23748; bugfix on 0.3.2.2-alpha. Patch + from "cathugger". + - Make sure that we have a usable ed25519 key when the intro point + relay supports ed25519 link authentication. Fixes bug 24002; + bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (hidden service, v2): + - When reloading configured hidden services, copy all information + from the old service object. Previously, some data was omitted, + causing delays in descriptor upload, and other bugs. Fixes bug + 23790; bugfix on 0.2.1.9-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (memory safety, defensive programming): + - Clear the target address when node_get_prim_orport() returns + early. Fixes bug 23874; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay): + - Avoid a BUG warning when receiving a dubious CREATE cell while an + option transition is in progress. Fixes bug 23952; bugfix + on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing): + - Adjust the GitLab CI configuration to more closely match that of + Travis CI. Fixes bug 23757; bugfix on 0.3.2.2-alpha. + - Prevent scripts/test/coverage from attempting to move gcov output + to the root directory. Fixes bug 23741; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + - When running unit tests as root, skip a test that would fail + because it expects a permissions error. This affects some + continuous integration setups. Fixes bug 23758; bugfix + on 0.3.2.2-alpha. + - Stop unconditionally mirroring the tor repository in GitLab CI. + This prevented developers from enabling GitLab CI on master. Fixes + bug 23755; bugfix on 0.3.2.2-alpha. + - Fix the hidden service v3 descriptor decoding fuzzing to use the + latest decoding API correctly. Fixes bug 21509; bugfix + on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (warnings): + - When we get an HTTP request on a SOCKS port, tell the user about + the new HTTPTunnelPort option. Previously, we would give a "Tor is + not an HTTP Proxy" message, which stopped being true when + HTTPTunnelPort was introduced.

Fixes bug 26485; bugfix + on 0.1.1.6-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (linux seccomp2 sandbox, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Fix a bug in out sandboxing rules for the openat() syscall. + Previously, no openat() call would be permitted, which would break + filesystem operations on recent glibc versions. Fixes bug 25440; + bugfix on 0.2.9.15. Diagnosis and patch from Daniel Pinto. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - Improve the log message when connection initiators fail to + authenticate direct connections to relays. Fixes bug 26927; bugfix + on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion services, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Fix bug that causes services to not ever rotate their descriptors + if they were getting SIGHUPed often.

Fixes bug 27093; bugfix on 0.3.4.3-alpha. + - Stop setting $CARGO_HOME. cargo will use the user's $CARGO_HOME, or + $HOME/.cargo by default. Fixes bug 26497; bugfix on 0.3.1.5-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (single onion services, Tor2web, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - Log a protocol warning when single onion services or Tor2web clients + fail to authenticate direct connections to relays. + Fixes bug 26924; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, backport from 0.3.4.6-rc): + - Disable core dumps in test_bt.sh, to avoid failures in "make + distcheck". Fixes bug 26787; bugfix on 0.2.5.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, chutney, backport from 0.3.4.8): + - When running make test-network-all, use the mixed+hs-v2 network. + (A previous fix to chutney removed v3 onion services from the + mixed+hs-v23 network, so seeing "mixed+hs-v23" in tests is + confusing.) Fixes bug 27345; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + - Before running make test-network-all, delete old logs and test + result files, to avoid spurious failures. Fixes bug 27295; bugfix + on 0.2.7.3-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, openssl compatibility): + - Our "tortls/cert_matches_key" unit test no longer relies on OpenSSL + internals. Previously, it relied on unsupported OpenSSL behavior in + a way that caused it to crash with OpenSSL 1.0.2p. Fixes bug 27226; + bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, openssl compatibility, backport from 0.3.4.7-rc): + - Our "tortls/cert_matches_key" unit test no longer relies on + OpenSSL internals.

Closes ticket 25313. + + o Minor feature (continuous integration, backport from 0.3.3.5-rc): + - Update the Travis CI configuration to use the stable Rust channel, + now that we have decided to require that. Closes ticket 25714. + + o Minor features (continuous integration, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Our .travis.yml configuration now includes support for testing the + results of "make distcheck". (It's not uncommon for "make check" + to pass but "make distcheck" to fail.) Closes ticket 25814. + - Our Travis CI configuration now integrates with the Coveralls + coverage analysis tool. Closes ticket 25818. + + o Minor features (relay, diagnostic, backport from 0.3.4.3-alpha): + - Add several checks to detect whether Tor relays are uploading + their descriptors without specifying why they regenerated them. + Diagnostic for ticket 25686. + + o Minor features (compilation, backport from 0.3.4.4-rc): + - When building Tor, prefer to use Python 3 over Python 2, and more + recent (contemplated) versions over older ones. Closes + ticket 26372. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the July 3 2018 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. Closes ticket 26674. + + o Minor bugfixes (correctness, client, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Upon receiving a malformed connected cell, stop processing the + cell immediately. Previously we would mark the connection for + close, but continue processing the cell as if the connection were + open. Fixes bug 26072; bugfix on 0.2.4.7-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (Linux seccomp2 sandbox, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Allow the nanosleep() system call, which glibc uses to implement + sleep() and usleep(). Fixes bug 24969; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, compatibility, backport from 0.3.4.4-rc): + - When running the hs_ntor_ref.py test, make sure only to pass + strings (rather than "bytes" objects) to the Python subprocess + module. Python 3 on Windows seems to require this. Fixes bug + 26535; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + - When running the ntor_ref.py test, make sure only to pass strings + (rather than "bytes" objects) to the Python subprocess module. + Python 3 on Windows seems to require this. Fixes bug 26535; bugfix + on 0.2.5.5-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compatibility, openssl, backport from 0.3.4.2-alpha): + - Work around a change in OpenSSL 1.1.1 where return values that + would previously indicate "no password" now indicate an empty + password. Without this workaround, Tor instances running with + OpenSSL 1.1.1 would accept descriptors that other Tor instances + would reject. Fixes bug 26116; bugfix on 0.2.5.16. + + o Minor bugfixes (documentation, backport from 0.3.3.5-rc): + - Document that the PerConnBW{Rate,Burst} options will fall back to + their corresponding consensus parameters only if those parameters + are set. Previously we had claimed that these values would always + be set in the consensus. Fixes bug 25296; bugfix on 0.2.2.7-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.4.4-rc): + - Fix a compilation warning on some versions of GCC when building + code that calls routerinfo_get_my_routerinfo() twice, assuming + that the second call will succeed if the first one did. Fixes bug + 26269; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (client, backport from 0.3.4.1-alpha): + - Don't consider Tor running as a client if the ControlPort is open, + but no actual client ports are open.

Fixes bug 25901; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + - When parsing the descriptor signature, look for the token plus an + extra white-space at the end. This is more correct but also will + allow us to support new fields that might start with "signature". + Fixes bug 26069; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay, backport from 0.3.4.3-alpha): + - Relays now correctly block attempts to re-extend to the previous + relay by Ed25519 identity.

Fixes bug 26272; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, backport from 0.3.3.4-alpha): + - Avoid intermittent test failures due to a test that had relied on + onion service introduction point creation finishing within 5 + seconds of real clock time. Fixes bug 25450; bugfix + on 0.3.1.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.3.4-alpha): + - Fix a C99 compliance issue in our configuration script that caused + compilation issues when compiling Tor with certain versions of + xtools. Fixes bug 25474; bugfix on 0.3.2.5-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (memory, correctness, backport from 0.3.4.4-rc): + - Fix a number of small memory leaks identified by coverity. Fixes + bug 26467; bugfix on numerous Tor versions. + + o Code simplification and refactoring (backport from 0.3.3.5-rc): + - Move the list of default directory authorities to its own file. + Closes ticket 24854. Patch by "beastr0". + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.10 - 2018-03-03 + Tor 0.3.2.10 is the second stable release in the 0.3.2 series. It + backports a number of bugfixes, including important fixes for security + issues. + + It includes an important security fix for a remote crash attack + against directory authorities, tracked as TROVE-2018-001. + + Additionally, it backports a fix for a bug whose severity we have + upgraded: Bug 24700, which was fixed in 0.3.3.2-alpha, can be remotely + triggered in order to crash relays with a use-after-free pattern. As + such, we are now tracking that bug as TROVE-2018-002 and + CVE-2018-0491, and backporting it to earlier releases. This bug + affected versions 0.3.2.1-alpha through 0.3.2.9, as well as version + 0.3.3.1-alpha. + + This release also backports our new system for improved resistance to + denial-of-service attacks against relays. + + This release also fixes several minor bugs and annoyances from + earlier releases. + + Relays running 0.3.2.x SHOULD upgrade to one of the versions released + today, for the fix to TROVE-2018-002. Directory authorities should + also upgrade. (Relays on earlier versions might want to update too for + the DoS mitigations.) + + o Major bugfixes (denial-of-service, directory authority, backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Fix a protocol-list handling bug that could be used to remotely crash + directory authorities with a null-pointer exception. Fixes bug 25074; + bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. Also tracked as TROVE-2018-001 and + CVE-2018-0490. + + o Major bugfixes (scheduler, KIST, denial-of-service, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Avoid adding the same channel twice in the KIST scheduler pending + list, which could lead to remote denial-of-service use-after-free + attacks against relays. Fixes bug 24700; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Major features (denial-of-service mitigation, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Give relays some defenses against the recent network overload. We + start with three defenses (default parameters in parentheses). + First: if a single client address makes too many concurrent + connections (>100), hang up on further connections. Second: if a + single client address makes circuits too quickly (more than 3 per + second, with an allowed burst of 90) while also having too many + connections open (3), refuse new create cells for the next while + (1-2 hours). Third: if a client asks to establish a rendezvous + point to you directly, ignore the request. These defenses can be + manually controlled by new torrc options, but relays will also + take guidance from consensus parameters, so there's no need to + configure anything manually. Implements ticket 24902. + + o Major bugfixes (onion services, retry behavior, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Fix an "off by 2" error in counting rendezvous failures on the + onion service side. While we thought we would stop the rendezvous + attempt after one failed circuit, we were actually making three + circuit attempts before giving up. Now switch to a default of 2, + and allow the consensus parameter "hs_service_max_rdv_failures" to + override. Fixes bug 24895; bugfix on 0.0.6. + - New-style (v3) onion services now obey the "max rendezvous circuit + attempts" logic. Previously they would make as many rendezvous + circuit attempts as they could fit in the MAX_REND_TIMEOUT second + window before giving up. Fixes bug 24894; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (protocol versions, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Add Link protocol version 5 to the supported protocols list. Fixes + bug 25070; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (relay, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Fix a set of false positives where relays would consider + connections to other relays as being client-only connections (and + thus e.g. deserving different link padding schemes) if those + relays fell out of the consensus briefly. Now we look only at the + initial handshake and whether the connection authenticated as a + relay. Fixes bug 24898; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (scheduler, consensus, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - The scheduler subsystem was failing to promptly notice changes in + consensus parameters, making it harder to switch schedulers + network-wide. Fixes bug 24975; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor features (denial-of-service avoidance, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Make our OOM handler aware of the geoip client history cache so it + doesn't fill up the memory. This check is important for IPv6 and + our DoS mitigation subsystem. Closes ticket 25122. + + o Minor features (compatibility, OpenSSL, backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Tor will now support TLS1.3 once OpenSSL 1.1.1 is released. + Previous versions of Tor would not have worked with OpenSSL 1.1.1, + since they neither disabled TLS 1.3 nor enabled any of the + ciphersuites it requires. Now we enable the TLS 1.3 ciphersuites. + Closes ticket 24978. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the February 7 2018 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. + + o Minor features (logging, diagnostic, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - When logging a failure to create an onion service's descriptor, + also log what the problem with the descriptor was. Diagnostic + for ticket 24972. + + o Minor bugfix (channel connection, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Use the actual observed address of an incoming relay connection, + not the canonical address of the relay from its descriptor, when + making decisions about how to handle the incoming connection. + Fixes bug 24952; bugfix on 0.2.4.11-alpha. Patch by "ffmancera". + + o Minor bugfixes (denial-of-service, backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Fix a possible crash on malformed consensus. If a consensus had + contained an unparseable protocol line, it could have made clients + and relays crash with a null-pointer exception. To exploit this + issue, however, an attacker would need to be able to subvert the + directory authority system. Fixes bug 25251; bugfix on + 0.2.9.4-alpha. Also tracked as TROVE-2018-004. + + o Minor bugfix (directory authority, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Directory authorities, when refusing a descriptor from a rejected + relay, now explicitly tell the relay (in its logs) to set a valid + ContactInfo address and contact the bad-relays@ mailing list. + Fixes bug 25170; bugfix on 0.2.9.1. + + o Minor bugfixes (build, rust, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - When building with Rust on OSX, link against libresolv, to work + around the issue at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/46797. + Fixes bug 24652; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion services, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Remove a BUG() statement when a client fetches an onion descriptor + that has a lower revision counter than the one in its cache. This + can happen in normal circumstances due to HSDir desync. Fixes bug + 24976; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Don't treat inability to store a cached consensus object as a bug: + it can happen normally when we are out of disk space. Fixes bug + 24859; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (performance, fragile-hardening, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Improve the performance of our consensus-diff application code + when Tor is built with the --enable-fragile-hardening option set. + Fixes bug 24826; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (OSX, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Don't exit the Tor process if setrlimit() fails to change the file + limit (which can happen sometimes on some versions of OSX). Fixes + bug 21074; bugfix on 0.0.9pre5. + + o Minor bugfixes (spec conformance, backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Forbid "-0" as a protocol version. Fixes part of bug 25249; bugfix on + 0.2.9.4-alpha. + - Forbid UINT32_MAX as a protocol version. Fixes part of bug 25249; + bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing, backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha): + - Fix a memory leak in the scheduler/loop_kist unit test. Fixes bug + 25005; bugfix on 0.3.2.7-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (v3 onion services, backport from 0.3.3.2-alpha): + - Look at the "HSRend" protocol version, not the "HSDir" protocol + version, when deciding whether a consensus entry can support the + v3 onion service protocol as a rendezvous point. Fixes bug 25105; + bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Code simplification and refactoring (backport from 0.3.3.3-alpha): + - Update the "rust dependencies" submodule to be a project-level + repository, rather than a user repository. Closes ticket 25323. + + o Documentation (backport from 0.3.3.1-alpha) + - Document that operators who run more than one relay or bridge are + expected to set MyFamily and ContactInfo correctly. Closes + ticket 24526. + + +Changes in version 0.3.2.9 - 2018-01-09 + Tor 0.3.2.9 is the first stable release in the 0.3.2 series. + + The 0.3.2 series includes our long-anticipated new onion service + design, with numerous security features. (For more information, see + our blog post at https://blog.torproject.org/fall-harvest.) We also + have a new circuit scheduler algorithm for improved performance on + relays everywhere (see https://blog.torproject.org/kist-and-tell), + along with many smaller features and bugfixes. + + Per our stable release policy, we plan to support each stable release + series for at least the next nine months, or for three months after + the first stable release of the next series: whichever is longer. If + you need a release with long-term support, we recommend that you stay + with the 0.2.9 series. + + Below is a list of the changes since 0.3.1.7. For a list of all + changes since 0.3.2.8-rc, see the ChangeLog file. + + o Directory authority changes: + - Add "Bastet" as a ninth directory authority to the default list. + Closes ticket 23910. + - The directory authority "Longclaw" has changed its IP address. + Closes ticket 23592. + - Remove longclaw's IPv6 address, as it will soon change. Authority + IPv6 addresses were originally added in 0.2.8.1-alpha. This leaves + 3/8 directory authorities with IPv6 addresses, but there are also + 52 fallback directory mirrors with IPv6 addresses. Resolves 19760. + - Add an IPv6 address for the "bastet" directory authority. Closes + ticket 24394. + + o Major features (next-generation onion services): + - Tor now supports the next-generation onion services protocol for + clients and services! As part of this release, the core of + proposal 224 has been implemented and is available for + experimentation and testing by our users. This newer version of + onion services ("v3") features many improvements over the legacy + system, including: + + a) Better crypto (replaced SHA1/DH/RSA1024 + with SHA3/ed25519/curve25519) + + b) Improved directory protocol, leaking much less information to + directory servers. + + c) Improved directory protocol, with smaller surface for + targeted attacks. + + d) Better onion address security against impersonation. + + e) More extensible introduction/rendezvous protocol. + + f) A cleaner and more modular codebase. + + You can identify a next-generation onion address by its length: + they are 56 characters long, as in + "4acth47i6kxnvkewtm6q7ib2s3ufpo5sqbsnzjpbi7utijcltosqemad.onion". + + In the future, we will release more options and features for v3 + onion services, but we first need a testing period, so that the + current codebase matures and becomes more robust. Planned features + include: offline keys, advanced client authorization, improved + guard algorithms, and statistics. For full details, see + proposal 224. + + Legacy ("v2") onion services will still work for the foreseeable + future, and will remain the default until this new codebase gets + tested and hardened. Service operators who want to experiment with + the new system can use the 'HiddenServiceVersion 3' torrc + directive along with the regular onion service configuration + options. For more information, see our blog post at + "https://blog.torproject.org/fall-harvest". Enjoy! + + o Major feature (scheduler, channel): + - Tor now uses new schedulers to decide which circuits should + deliver cells first, in order to improve congestion at relays. The + first type is called "KIST" ("Kernel Informed Socket Transport"), + and is only available on Linux-like systems: it uses feedback from + the kernel to prevent the kernel's TCP buffers from growing too + full. The second new scheduler type is called "KISTLite": it + behaves the same as KIST, but runs on systems without kernel + support for inspecting TCP implementation details. The old + scheduler is still available, under the name "Vanilla". To change + the default scheduler preference order, use the new "Schedulers" + option. (The default preference order is "KIST,KISTLite,Vanilla".) + + Matt Traudt implemented KIST, based on research by Rob Jansen, + John Geddes, Christ Wacek, Micah Sherr, and Paul Syverson. For + more information, see the design paper at + http://www.robgjansen.com/publications/kist-sec2014.pdf and the + followup implementation paper at https://arxiv.org/abs/1709.01044. + Closes ticket 12541. For more information, see our blog post at + "https://blog.torproject.org/kist-and-tell". + + o Major bugfixes (security, general): + - Fix a denial of service bug where an attacker could use a + malformed directory object to cause a Tor instance to pause while + OpenSSL would try to read a passphrase from the terminal. (Tor + instances run without a terminal, which is the case for most Tor + packages, are not impacted.) Fixes bug 24246; bugfix on every + version of Tor. Also tracked as TROVE-2017-011 and CVE-2017-8821. + Found by OSS-Fuzz as testcase 6360145429790720. + + o Major bugfixes (security, directory authority): + - Fix a denial of service issue where an attacker could crash a + directory authority using a malformed router descriptor. Fixes bug + 24245; bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. Also tracked as TROVE-2017-010 + and CVE-2017-8820. + + o Major bugfixes (security, onion service v2): + - Fix a use-after-free error that could crash v2 Tor onion services + when they failed to open circuits while expiring introduction + points. Fixes bug 24313; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha. This issue is + also tracked as TROVE-2017-013 and CVE-2017-8823. + - When checking for replays in the INTRODUCE1 cell data for a + (legacy) onion service, correctly detect replays in the RSA- + encrypted part of the cell. We were previously checking for + replays on the entire cell, but those can be circumvented due to + the malleability of Tor's legacy hybrid encryption. This fix helps + prevent a traffic confirmation attack. Fixes bug 24244; bugfix on + 0.2.4.1-alpha. This issue is also tracked as TROVE-2017-009 + and CVE-2017-8819. + + o Major bugfixes (security, relay): + - When running as a relay, make sure that we never build a path + through ourselves, even in the case where we have somehow lost the + version of our descriptor appearing in the consensus. Fixes part + of bug 21534; bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha. This issue is also tracked + as TROVE-2017-012 and CVE-2017-8822. + - When running as a relay, make sure that we never choose ourselves + as a guard. Fixes part of bug 21534; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. This + issue is also tracked as TROVE-2017-012 and CVE-2017-8822. + + o Major bugfixes (bootstrapping): + - Fetch descriptors aggressively whenever we lack enough to build + circuits, regardless of how many descriptors we are missing. + Previously, we would delay launching the fetch when we had fewer + than 15 missing descriptors, even if some of those descriptors + were blocking circuits from building. Fixes bug 23985; bugfix on + 0.1.1.11-alpha. The effects of this bug became worse in + 0.3.0.3-alpha, when we began treating missing descriptors from our + primary guards as a reason to delay circuits. + - Don't try fetching microdescriptors from relays that have failed + to deliver them in the past. Fixes bug 23817; bugfix + on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (circuit prediction): + - Fix circuit prediction logic so that a client doesn't treat a port + as being "handled" by a circuit if that circuit already has + isolation settings on it. This change should make Tor clients more + responsive by improving their chances of having a pre-created + circuit ready for use when a request arrives. Fixes bug 18859; + bugfix on 0.2.3.3-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (exit relays, DNS): + - Fix an issue causing DNS to fail on high-bandwidth exit nodes, + making them nearly unusable. Fixes bugs 21394 and 18580; bugfix on + 0.1.2.2-alpha, which introduced eventdns. Thanks to Dhalgren for + identifying and finding a workaround to this bug and to Moritz, + Arthur Edelstein, and Roger for helping to track it down and + analyze it. + + o Major bugfixes (relay, crash, assertion failure): + - Fix a timing-based assertion failure that could occur when the + circuit out-of-memory handler freed a connection's output buffer. + Fixes bug 23690; bugfix on 0.2.6.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (usability, control port): + - Report trusted clock skew indications as bootstrap errors, so + controllers can more easily alert users when their clocks are + wrong. Fixes bug 23506; bugfix on 0.1.2.6-alpha. + + o Minor features (bridge): + - Bridge relays can now set the BridgeDistribution config option to + add a "bridge-distribution-request" line to their bridge + descriptor, which tells BridgeDB how they'd like their bridge + address to be given out. (Note that as of Oct 2017, BridgeDB does + not yet implement this feature.) As a side benefit, this feature + provides a way to distinguish bridge descriptors from non-bridge + descriptors. Implements tickets 18329. + - When handling the USERADDR command on an ExtOrPort, warn when the + transports provides a USERADDR with no port. In a future version, + USERADDR commands of this format may be rejected. Detects problems + related to ticket 23080. + + o Minor features (bug detection): + - Log a warning message with a stack trace for any attempt to call + get_options() during option validation. This pattern has caused + subtle bugs in the past. Closes ticket 22281. + + o Minor features (build, compilation): + - The "check-changes" feature is now part of the "make check" tests; + we'll use it to try to prevent misformed changes files from + accumulating. Closes ticket 23564. + - Tor builds should now fail if there are any mismatches between the + C type representing a configuration variable and the C type the + data-driven parser uses to store a value there. Previously, we + needed to check these by hand, which sometimes led to mistakes. + Closes ticket 23643. + + o Minor features (client): + - You can now use Tor as a tunneled HTTP proxy: use the new + HTTPTunnelPort option to open a port that accepts HTTP CONNECT + requests. Closes ticket 22407. + - Add an extra check to make sure that we always use the newer guard + selection code for picking our guards. Closes ticket 22779. + - When downloading (micro)descriptors, don't split the list into + multiple requests unless we want at least 32 descriptors. + Previously, we split at 4, not 32, which led to significant + overhead in HTTP request size and degradation in compression + performance. Closes ticket 23220. + - Improve log messages when missing descriptors for primary guards. + Resolves ticket 23670. + + o Minor features (command line): + - Add a new commandline option, --key-expiration, which prints when + the current signing key is going to expire. Implements ticket + 17639; patch by Isis Lovecruft. + + o Minor features (control port): + - If an application tries to use the control port as an HTTP proxy, + respond with a meaningful "This is the Tor control port" message, + and log the event. Closes ticket 1667. Patch from Ravi + Chandra Padmala. + - Provide better error message for GETINFO desc/(id|name) when not + fetching router descriptors. Closes ticket 5847. Patch by + Kevin Butler. + - Add GETINFO "{desc,md}/download-enabled", to inform the controller + whether Tor will try to download router descriptors and + microdescriptors respectively. Closes ticket 22684. + - Added new GETINFO targets "ip-to-country/{ipv4,ipv6}-available", + so controllers can tell whether the geoip databases are loaded. + Closes ticket 23237. + - Adds a timestamp field to the CIRC_BW and STREAM_BW bandwidth + events. Closes ticket 19254. Patch by "DonnchaC". + + o Minor features (development support): + - Developers can now generate a call-graph for Tor using the + "calltool" python program, which post-processes object dumps. It + should work okay on many Linux and OSX platforms, and might work + elsewhere too. To run it, install calltool from + https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/nickm/calltool.git and run + "make callgraph". Closes ticket 19307. + + o Minor features (directory authority): + - Make the "Exit" flag assignment only depend on whether the exit + policy allows connections to ports 80 and 443. Previously relays + would get the Exit flag if they allowed connections to one of + these ports and also port 6667. Resolves ticket 23637. + + o Minor features (ed25519): + - Add validation function to checks for torsion components in + ed25519 public keys, used by prop224 client-side code. Closes + ticket 22006. Math help by Ian Goldberg. + + o Minor features (exit relay, DNS): + - Improve the clarity and safety of the log message from evdns when + receiving an apparently spoofed DNS reply. Closes ticket 3056. + + o Minor features (fallback directory mirrors): + - The fallback directory list has been re-generated based on the + current status of the network. Tor uses fallback directories to + bootstrap when it doesn't yet have up-to-date directory + information. Closes ticket 24801. + - Make the default DirAuthorityFallbackRate 0.1, so that clients + prefer to bootstrap from fallback directory mirrors. This is a + follow-up to 24679, which removed weights from the default + fallbacks. Implements ticket 24681. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the January 5 2018 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. + + o Minor features (integration, hardening): + - Add a new NoExec option to prevent Tor from running other + programs. When this option is set to 1, Tor will never try to run + another program, regardless of the settings of + PortForwardingHelper, ClientTransportPlugin, or + ServerTransportPlugin. Once NoExec is set, it cannot be disabled + without restarting Tor. Closes ticket 22976. + + o Minor features (linux seccomp2 sandbox): + - Update the sandbox rules so that they should now work correctly + with Glibc 2.26. Closes ticket 24315. + + o Minor features (logging): + - Provide better warnings when the getrandom() syscall fails. Closes + ticket 24500. + - Downgrade a pair of log messages that could occur when an exit's + resolver gave us an unusual (but not forbidden) response. Closes + ticket 24097. + - Improve the message we log when re-enabling circuit build timeouts + after having received a consensus. Closes ticket 20963. + - Log more circuit information whenever we are about to try to + package a relay cell on a circuit with a nonexistent n_chan. + Attempt to diagnose ticket 8185. + - Improve info-level log identification of particular circuits, to + help with debugging. Closes ticket 23645. + - Improve the warning message for specifying a relay by nickname. + The previous message implied that nickname registration was still + part of the Tor network design, which it isn't. Closes + ticket 20488. + - If the sandbox filter fails to load, suggest to the user that + their kernel might not support seccomp2. Closes ticket 23090. + + o Minor features (onion service, circuit, logging): + - Improve logging of many callsite in the circuit subsystem to print + the circuit identifier(s). + - Log when we cleanup an intro point from a service so we know when + and for what reason it happened. Closes ticket 23604. + + o Minor features (portability): + - Tor now compiles correctly on arm64 with libseccomp-dev installed. + (It doesn't yet work with the sandbox enabled.) Closes + ticket 24424. + - Check at configure time whether uint8_t is the same type as + unsigned char. Lots of existing code already makes this + assumption, and there could be strict aliasing issues if the + assumption is violated. Closes ticket 22410. + + o Minor features (relay): + - When choosing which circuits can be expired as unused, consider + circuits from clients even if those clients used regular CREATE + cells to make them; and do not consider circuits from relays even + if they were made with CREATE_FAST. Part of ticket 22805. + - Reject attempts to use relative file paths when RunAsDaemon is + set. Previously, Tor would accept these, but the directory- + changing step of RunAsDaemon would give strange and/or confusing + results. Closes ticket 22731. + + o Minor features (relay statistics): + - Change relay bandwidth reporting stats interval from 4 hours to 24 + hours in order to reduce the efficiency of guard discovery + attacks. Fixes ticket 23856. + + o Minor features (reverted deprecations): + - The ClientDNSRejectInternalAddresses flag can once again be set in + non-testing Tor networks, so long as they do not use the default + directory authorities. This change also removes the deprecation of + this flag from 0.2.9.2-alpha. Closes ticket 21031. + + o Minor features (robustness): + - Change several fatal assertions when flushing buffers into non- + fatal assertions, to prevent any recurrence of 23690. + + o Minor features (startup, safety): + - When configured to write a PID file, Tor now exits if it is unable + to do so. Previously, it would warn and continue. Closes + ticket 20119. + + o Minor features (static analysis): + - The BUG() macro has been changed slightly so that Coverity no + longer complains about dead code if the bug is impossible. Closes + ticket 23054. + + o Minor features (testing): + - Our fuzzing tests now test the encrypted portions of v3 onion + service descriptors. Implements more of 21509. + - Add a unit test to make sure that our own generated platform + string will be accepted by directory authorities. Closes + ticket 22109. + - The default chutney network tests now include tests for the v3 + onion service design. Make sure you have the latest version of + chutney if you want to run these. Closes ticket 22437. + - Add a unit test to verify that we can parse a hardcoded v2 onion + service descriptor. Closes ticket 15554. + + o Minor bugfixes (address selection): + - When the fascist_firewall_choose_address_ functions don't find a + reachable address, set the returned address to the null address + and port. This is a precautionary measure, because some callers do + not check the return value. Fixes bug 24736; bugfix + on 0.2.8.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (bootstrapping): + - When warning about state file clock skew, report the correct + direction for the detected skew. Fixes bug 23606; bugfix + on 0.2.8.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (bridge clients, bootstrap): + - Retry directory downloads when we get our first bridge descriptor + during bootstrap or while reconnecting to the network. Keep + retrying every time we get a bridge descriptor, until we have a + reachable bridge. Fixes part of bug 24367; bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha. + - Stop delaying bridge descriptor fetches when we have cached bridge + descriptors. Instead, only delay bridge descriptor fetches when we + have at least one reachable bridge. Fixes part of bug 24367; + bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha. + - Stop delaying directory fetches when we have cached bridge + descriptors. Instead, only delay bridge descriptor fetches when + all our bridges are definitely unreachable. Fixes part of bug + 24367; bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (bridge): + - Overwrite the bridge address earlier in the process of retrieving + its descriptor, to make sure we reach it on the configured + address. Fixes bug 20532; bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (build, compilation): + - Fix a compilation warning when building with zstd support on + 32-bit platforms. Fixes bug 23568; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. Found + and fixed by Andreas Stieger. + - When searching for OpenSSL, don't accept any OpenSSL library that + lacks TLSv1_1_method(): Tor doesn't build with those versions. + Additionally, look in /usr/local/opt/openssl, if it's present. + These changes together repair the default build on OSX systems + with Homebrew installed. Fixes bug 23602; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha. + - Fix a signed/unsigned comparison warning introduced by our fix to + TROVE-2017-009. Fixes bug 24480; bugfix on 0.2.5.16. + - Fix a memory leak warning in one of the libevent-related + configuration tests that could occur when manually specifying + -fsanitize=address. Fixes bug 24279; bugfix on 0.3.0.2-alpha. + Found and patched by Alex Xu. + - Fix unused-variable warnings in donna's Curve25519 SSE2 code. + Fixes bug 22895; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (certificate handling): + - Fix a time handling bug in Tor certificates set to expire after + the year 2106. Fixes bug 23055; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. Found by + Coverity as CID 1415728. + + o Minor bugfixes (client): + - By default, do not enable storage of client-side DNS values. These + values were unused by default previously, but they should not have + been cached at all. Fixes bug 24050; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (client, usability): + - Refrain from needlessly rejecting SOCKS5-with-hostnames and + SOCKS4a requests that contain IP address strings, even when + SafeSocks in enabled, as this prevents user from connecting to + known IP addresses without relying on DNS for resolving. SafeSocks + still rejects SOCKS connections that connect to IP addresses when + those addresses are _not_ encoded as hostnames. Fixes bug 22461; + bugfix on Tor 0.2.6.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (code correctness): + - Call htons() in extend_cell_format() for encoding a 16-bit value. + Previously we used ntohs(), which happens to behave the same on + all the platforms we support, but which isn't really correct. + Fixes bug 23106; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. + - For defense-in-depth, make the controller's write_escaped_data() + function robust to extremely long inputs. Fixes bug 19281; bugfix + on 0.1.1.1-alpha. Reported by Guido Vranken. + - Fix several places in our codebase where a C compiler would be + likely to eliminate a check, based on assuming that undefined + behavior had not happened elsewhere in the code. These cases are + usually a sign of redundant checking or dubious arithmetic. Found + by Georg Koppen using the "STACK" tool from Wang, Zeldovich, + Kaashoek, and Solar-Lezama. Fixes bug 24423; bugfix on various + Tor versions. + + o Minor bugfixes (compression): + - Handle a pathological case when decompressing Zstandard data when + the output buffer size is zero. Fixes bug 23551; bugfix + on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (consensus expiry): + - Check for adequate directory information correctly. Previously, Tor + would reconsider whether it had sufficient directory information + every 2 minutes. Fixes bug 23091; bugfix on 0.2.0.19-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (control port, linux seccomp2 sandbox): + - Avoid a crash when attempting to use the seccomp2 sandbox together + with the OwningControllerProcess feature. Fixes bug 24198; bugfix + on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (control port, onion services): + - Report "FAILED" instead of "UPLOAD_FAILED" "FAILED" for the + HS_DESC event when a service is not able to upload a descriptor. + Fixes bug 24230; bugfix on 0.2.7.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (directory cache): + - Recover better from empty or corrupt files in the consensus cache + directory. Fixes bug 24099; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + - When a consensus diff calculation is only partially successful, + only record the successful parts as having succeeded. Partial + success can happen if (for example) one compression method fails + but the others succeed. Previously we misrecorded all the + calculations as having succeeded, which would later cause a + nonfatal assertion failure. Fixes bug 24086; bugfix + on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (directory client): + - On failure to download directory information, delay retry attempts + by a random amount based on the "decorrelated jitter" algorithm. + Our previous delay algorithm tended to produce extra-long delays + too easily. Fixes bug 23816; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (directory protocol): + - Directory servers now include a "Date:" http header for response + codes other than 200. Clients starting with a skewed clock and a + recent consensus were getting "304 Not modified" responses from + directory authorities, so without the Date header, the client + would never hear about a wrong clock. Fixes bug 23499; bugfix + on 0.0.8rc1. + - Make clients wait for 6 seconds before trying to download a + consensus from an authority. Fixes bug 17750; bugfix + on 0.2.8.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (documentation): + - Document better how to read gcov, and what our gcov postprocessing + scripts do. Fixes bug 23739; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + - Fix manpage to not refer to the obsolete (and misspelled) + UseEntryGuardsAsDirectoryGuards parameter in the description of + NumDirectoryGuards. Fixes bug 23611; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (DoS-resistance): + - If future code asks if there are any running bridges, without + checking if bridges are enabled, log a BUG warning rather than + crashing. Fixes bug 23524; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (entry guards): + - Tor now updates its guard state when it reads a consensus + regardless of whether it's missing descriptors. That makes tor use + its primary guards to fetch descriptors in some edge cases where + it would previously have used fallback directories. Fixes bug + 23862; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (format strictness): + - Restrict several data formats to decimal. Previously, the + BuildTimeHistogram entries in the state file, the "bw=" entries in + the bandwidth authority file, and the process IDs passed to the + __OwningControllerProcess option could all be specified in hex or + octal as well as in decimal. This was not an intentional feature. + Fixes bug 22802; bugfixes on 0.2.2.1-alpha, 0.2.2.2-alpha, + and 0.2.2.28-beta. + + o Minor bugfixes (heartbeat): + - If we fail to write a heartbeat message, schedule a retry for the + minimum heartbeat interval number of seconds in the future. Fixes + bug 19476; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging): + - Suppress a log notice when relay descriptors arrive. We already + have a bootstrap progress for this so no need to log notice + everytime tor receives relay descriptors. Microdescriptors behave + the same. Fixes bug 23861; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha. + - Remove duplicate log messages regarding opening non-local + SocksPorts upon parsing config and opening listeners at startup. + Fixes bug 4019; bugfix on 0.2.3.3-alpha. + - Use a more comprehensible log message when telling the user + they've excluded every running exit node. Fixes bug 7890; bugfix + on 0.2.2.25-alpha. + - When logging the number of descriptors we intend to download per + directory request, do not log a number higher than then the number + of descriptors we're fetching in total. Fixes bug 19648; bugfix + on 0.1.1.8-alpha. + - When warning about a directory owned by the wrong user, log the + actual name of the user owning the directory. Previously, we'd log + the name of the process owner twice. Fixes bug 23487; bugfix + on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + - Fix some messages on unexpected errors from the seccomp2 library. + Fixes bug 22750; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. Patch from "cypherpunks". + - The tor specification says hop counts are 1-based, so fix two log + messages that mistakenly logged 0-based hop counts. Fixes bug + 18982; bugfix on 0.2.6.2-alpha and 0.2.4.5-alpha. Patch by teor. + Credit to Xiaofan Li for reporting this issue. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging, relay shutdown, annoyance): + - When a circuit is marked for close, do not attempt to package any + cells for channels on that circuit. Previously, we would detect + this condition lower in the call stack, when we noticed that the + circuit had no attached channel, and log an annoying message. + Fixes bug 8185; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (memory safety, defensive programming): + - Clear the target address when node_get_prim_orport() returns + early. Fixes bug 23874; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (memory usage): + - When queuing DESTROY cells on a channel, only queue the circuit-id + and reason fields: not the entire 514-byte cell. This fix should + help mitigate any bugs or attacks that fill up these queues, and + free more RAM for other uses. Fixes bug 24666; bugfix + on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (network layer): + - When closing a connection via close_connection_immediately(), we + mark it as "not blocked on bandwidth", to prevent later calls from + trying to unblock it, and give it permission to read. This fixes a + backtrace warning that can happen on relays under various + circumstances. Fixes bug 24167; bugfix on 0.1.0.1-rc. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion services): + - The introduction circuit was being timed out too quickly while + waiting for the rendezvous circuit to complete. Keep the intro + circuit around longer instead of timing out and reopening new ones + constantly. Fixes bug 23681; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. + - Rename the consensus parameter "hsdir-interval" to "hsdir_interval" + so it matches dir-spec.txt. Fixes bug 24262; bugfix + on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + - When handling multiple SOCKS request for the same .onion address, + only fetch the service descriptor once. + - Avoid a possible double close of a circuit by the intro point on + error of sending the INTRO_ESTABLISHED cell. Fixes bug 23610; + bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha. + - When reloading configured onion services, copy all information + from the old service object. Previously, some data was omitted, + causing delays in descriptor upload, and other bugs. Fixes bug + 23790; bugfix on 0.2.1.9-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (path selection): + - When selecting relays by bandwidth, avoid a rounding error that + could sometimes cause load to be imbalanced incorrectly. + Previously, we would always round upwards; now, we round towards + the nearest integer. This had the biggest effect when a relay's + weight adjustments should have given it weight 0, but it got + weight 1 instead. Fixes bug 23318; bugfix on 0.2.4.3-alpha. + - When calculating the fraction of nodes that have descriptors, and + all nodes in the network have zero bandwidths, count the number of + nodes instead. Fixes bug 23318; bugfix on 0.2.4.10-alpha. + - Actually log the total bandwidth in compute_weighted_bandwidths(). + Fixes bug 24170; bugfix on 0.2.4.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (portability): + - Stop using the PATH_MAX variable, which is not defined on GNU + Hurd. Fixes bug 23098; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + - Fix a bug in the bit-counting parts of our timing-wheel code on + MSVC. (Note that MSVC is still not a supported build platform, due + to cyptographic timing channel risks.) Fixes bug 24633; bugfix + on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay): + - When uploading our descriptor for the first time after startup, + report the reason for uploading as "Tor just started" rather than + leaving it blank. Fixes bug 22885; bugfix on 0.2.3.4-alpha. + - Avoid unnecessary calls to directory_fetches_from_authorities() on + relays, to prevent spurious address resolutions and descriptor + rebuilds. This is a mitigation for bug 21789. Fixes bug 23470; + bugfix on in 0.2.8.1-alpha. + - Avoid a crash when transitioning from client mode to bridge mode. + Previously, we would launch the worker threads whenever our + "public server" mode changed, but not when our "server" mode + changed. Fixes bug 23693; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing): + - Fix a spurious fuzzing-only use of an uninitialized value. Found + by Brian Carpenter. Fixes bug 24082; bugfix on 0.3.0.3-alpha. + - Test that IPv6-only clients can use microdescriptors when running + "make test-network-all". Requires chutney master 61c28b9 or later. + Closes ticket 24109. + - Prevent scripts/test/coverage from attempting to move gcov output + to the root directory. Fixes bug 23741; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + - Capture and detect several "Result does not fit" warnings in unit + tests on platforms with 32-bit time_t. Fixes bug 21800; bugfix + on 0.2.9.3-alpha. + - Fix additional channelpadding unit test failures by using mocked + time instead of actual time for all tests. Fixes bug 23608; bugfix + on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + - Fix a bug in our fuzzing mock replacement for crypto_pk_checksig(), + to correctly handle cases where a caller gives it an RSA key of + under 160 bits. (This is not actually a bug in Tor itself, but + rather in our fuzzing code.) Fixes bug 24247; bugfix on + 0.3.0.3-alpha. Found by OSS-Fuzz as issue 4177. + - Fix a broken unit test for the OutboundAddress option: the parsing + function was never returning an error on failure. Fixes bug 23366; + bugfix on 0.3.0.3-alpha. + - Fix a signed-integer overflow in the unit tests for + dir/download_status_random_backoff, which was untriggered until we + fixed bug 17750. Fixes bug 22924; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (usability, control port): + - Stop making an unnecessary routerlist check in NETINFO clock skew + detection; this was preventing clients from reporting NETINFO clock + skew to controllers. Fixes bug 23532; bugfix on 0.2.4.4-alpha. + + o Code simplification and refactoring: + - Remove various ways of testing circuits and connections for + "clientness"; instead, favor channel_is_client(). Part of + ticket 22805. + - Extract the code for handling newly-open channels into a separate + function from the general code to handle channel state + transitions. This change simplifies our callgraph, reducing the + size of the largest strongly connected component by roughly a + factor of two. Closes ticket 22608. + - Remove dead code for largely unused statistics on the number of + times we've attempted various public key operations. Fixes bug + 19871; bugfix on 0.1.2.4-alpha. Fix by Isis Lovecruft. + - Remove several now-obsolete functions for asking about old + variants directory authority status. Closes ticket 22311; patch + from "huyvq". + - Remove some of the code that once supported "Named" and "Unnamed" + routers. Authorities no longer vote for these flags. Closes + ticket 22215. + - Rename the obsolete malleable hybrid_encrypt functions used in TAP + and old hidden services, to indicate that they aren't suitable for + new protocols or formats. Closes ticket 23026. + - Replace our STRUCT_OFFSET() macro with offsetof(). Closes ticket + 22521. Patch from Neel Chauhan. + - Split the enormous circuit_send_next_onion_skin() function into + multiple subfunctions. Closes ticket 22804. + - Split the portions of the buffer.c module that handle particular + protocols into separate modules. Part of ticket 23149. + - Use our test macros more consistently, to produce more useful + error messages when our unit tests fail. Add coccinelle patches to + allow us to re-check for test macro uses. Closes ticket 22497. + + o Deprecated features: + - The ReachableDirAddresses and ClientPreferIPv6DirPort options are + now deprecated; they do not apply to relays, and they have had no + effect on clients since 0.2.8.x. Closes ticket 19704. + - Deprecate HTTPProxy/HTTPProxyAuthenticator config options. They + only applies to direct unencrypted HTTP connections to your + directory server, which your Tor probably isn't using. Closes + ticket 20575. + + o Documentation: + - Add notes in man page regarding OS support for the various + scheduler types. Attempt to use less jargon in the scheduler + section. Closes ticket 24254. + - Clarify that the Address option is entirely about setting an + advertised IPv4 address. Closes ticket 18891. + - Clarify the manpage's use of the term "address" to clarify what + kind of address is intended.
