Fixes bug 4011; + fix on 0.2.3.1-alpha. + - If authorities are unable to get a v2 consensus document from other + directory authorities, they no longer fall back to fetching + them from regular directory caches. Fixes bug 5635; bugfix on + 0.2.2.26-beta, where routers stopped downloading v2 consensus + documents entirely. + - Avoid a client-side assertion failure when receiving an INTRODUCE2 + cell on a general purpose circuit. Fixes bug 5644; bugfix on + 0.2.1.6-alpha. + - Avoid logging uninitialized data when unable to decode a hidden + service descriptor cookie. Fixes bug 5647; bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha. + + o Major features (performance): + - When built to use OpenSSL 1.0.1, and built for an x86 or x86_64 + instruction set, take advantage of OpenSSL's AESNI, bitsliced, or + vectorized AES implementations as appropriate. These can be much, + much faster than other AES implementations. + + o Minor bugfixes (0.2.2.x and earlier): + - Change the BridgePassword feature (part of the "bridge community" + design, which is not yet implemented) to use a time-independent + comparison. The old behavior might have allowed an adversary + to use timing to guess the BridgePassword value. Fixes bug 5543; + bugfix on 0.2.0.14-alpha. + - Enforce correct return behavior of tor_vsscanf() when the '%%' + pattern is used. Fixes bug 5558. Bugfix on 0.2.1.13. + - When sending an HTTP/1.1 proxy request, include a Host header. + Fixes bug 5593; bugfix on 0.2.2.1-alpha. + - Don't log that we have "decided to publish new relay descriptor" + unless we are actually publishing a descriptor. Fixes bug 3942; + bugfix on 0.2.2.28-beta. + + o Minor bugfixes (0.2.3.x): + - Fix a bug where a bridge authority crashes (on a failed assert) + if it has seen no directory requests when it's time to write + statistics to disk. Fixes bug 5508. Bugfix on 0.2.3.6-alpha. + - Fix bug stomping on ORPort option NoListen and ignoring option + NoAdvertise. Fixes bug 5151; bugfix on 0.2.3.9-alpha. + - In the testsuite, provide a large enough buffer in the tor_sscanf + unit test. Otherwise we'd overrun that buffer and crash during + the unit tests. Found by weasel. Fixes bug 5449; bugfix on + 0.2.3.12-alpha. + - Make sure we create the keys directory if it doesn't exist and we're + about to store the dynamic Diffie-Hellman parameters. Fixes bug + 5572; bugfix on 0.2.3.13-alpha. + - Fix a small memory leak when trying to decode incorrect base16 + authenticator during SAFECOOKIE authentication. Found by + Coverity Scan. Fixes CID 507. Bugfix on 0.2.3.13-alpha. + + o Minor features: + - Add more information to a log statement that might help track down + bug 4091. If you're seeing "Bug: tor_addr_is_internal() called with a + non-IP address" messages (or any Bug messages, for that matter!), + please let us know about it. + - Relays now understand an IPv6 address when they get one from a + directory server. Resolves ticket 4875. + - Resolve IPv6 addresses in bridge and entry statistics to country + code "??" which means we at least count them. Resolves ticket 5053; + improves on 0.2.3.9-alpha. + - Update to the April 3 2012 Maxmind GeoLite Country database. + + o Documentation: + - Begin a doc/state-contents.txt file to explain the contents of + the Tor state file. Fixes bug 2987. + - Document unit of bandwidth related options in sample torrc. + Fixes bug 5621. + + o Removed features: + - The "torify" script no longer supports the "tsocks" socksifier + tool, since tsocks doesn't support DNS and UDP right for Tor. + Everyone should be using torsocks instead. Fixes bugs 3530 and + 5180. Based on a patch by "ugh". + + o Code refactoring: + - Change the symmetric cipher interface so that creating and + initializing a stream cipher are no longer separate functions. + - Remove all internal support for unpadded RSA. We never used it, and + it would be a bad idea to start. + + Changes in version 0.2.3.13-alpha - 2012-03-26 Tor 0.2.3.13-alpha fixes a variety of stability and correctness bugs in managed pluggable transports, as well as providing other cleanups |
