+Changes in version 0.4.8.6 - 2023-09-18
+ This version contains an important fix for onion service regarding congestion
+ control and its reliability. Apart from that, uneeded BUG warnings have been
+ suppressed especially about a compression bomb seen on relays. We strongly
+ recommend, in particular onion service operators, to upgrade as soon as
+ possible to this latest stable.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (onion service):
+ - Fix a reliability issue where services were expiring their
+ introduction points every consensus update. This caused
+ connectivity issues for clients caching the old descriptor and
+ intro points. Bug reported and fixed by gitlab user
+ @hyunsoo.kim676. Fixes bug 40858; bugfix on 0.4.7.5-alpha.
+
+ o Minor features (debugging, compression):
+ - Log the input and output buffer sizes when we detect a potential
+ compression bomb. Diagnostic for ticket 40739.
+
+ o Minor features (fallbackdir):
+ - Regenerate fallback directories generated on September 18, 2023.
+
+ o Minor features (geoip data):
+ - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as
+ retrieved on 2023/09/18.
+
+ o Minor bugfix (defensive programming):
+ - Disable multiple BUG warnings of a missing relay identity key when
+ starting an instance of Tor compiled without relay support. Fixes
+ bug 40848; bugfix on 0.4.3.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (bridge authority):
+ - When reporting a pseudo-networkstatus as a bridge authority, or
+ answering "ns/purpose/*" controller requests, include accurate
+ published-on dates from our list of router descriptors. Fixes bug
+ 40855; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (compression, zstd):
+ - Use less frightening language and lower the log-level of our run-
+ time ABI compatibility check message in our Zstd compression
+ subsystem. Fixes bug 40815; bugfix on 0.4.3.1-alpha.
+
+
+Changes in version 0.4.8.5 - 2023-08-30
+ Quick second release after the first stable few days ago fixing minor
+ annoying bugfixes creating log BUG stacktrace. We also fix BSD compilation
+ failures and PoW unit test.
+
+ o Minor features (fallbackdir):
+ - Regenerate fallback directories generated on August 30, 2023.
+
+ o Minor features (geoip data):
+ - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as
+ retrieved on 2023/08/30.
+
+ o Minor bugfix (NetBSD, compilation):
+ - Fix compilation issue on NetBSD by avoiding an unnecessary
+ dependency on "huge" page mappings in Equi-X. Fixes bug 40843;
+ bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfix (NetBSD, testing):
+ - Fix test failures in "crypto/hashx" and "slow/crypto/equix" on
+ x86_64 and aarch64 NetBSD hosts, by adding support for
+ PROT_MPROTECT() flags. Fixes bug 40844; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (conflux):
+ - Demote a relay-side warn about too many legs to ProtocolWarn, as
+ there are conditions that it can briefly happen during set
+ construction. Also add additional set logging details for all
+ error cases. Fixes bug 40841; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha.
+ - Prevent non-fatal assert stacktrace caused by using conflux sets
+ during their teardown process. Fixes bug 40842; bugfix
+ on 0.4.8.1-alpha.
+
