Some minor memory leaks fixes as well as an important minor feature + for pluggable transports. We strongly recommend to update as soon as possible + for clients in order to neutralize this conflux bug. + + o Major bugfixes (circuit building): + - Conflux circuit building was ignoring the "predicted ports" + feature, which aims to make Tor stop building circuits if there + have been no user requests lately. This bug led to every idle Tor + on the network building and discarding circuits every 30 seconds, + which added overall load to the network, used bandwidth and + battery from clients that weren't actively using their Tor, and + kept sockets open on guards which added connection padding + essentially forever. Fixes bug 40981; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha; + + o Minor feature (bridges, pluggable transport): + - Add STATUS TYPE=version handler for Pluggable Transport. This + allows us to gather version statistics on Pluggable Transport + usage from bridge servers on our metrics portal. Closes + ticket 11101. + + o Minor features (fallbackdir): + - Regenerate fallback directories generated on October 24, 2024. + + o Minor features (geoip data): + - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as + retrieved on 2024/10/24. + + o Minor bugfixes (memleak, authority): + - Fix a small memleak when computing a new consensus. This only + affects directory authorities. Fixes bug 40966; bugfix + on 0.3.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (memory): + - Fix memory leaks of the CPU worker code during shutdown. Fixes bug + 833; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. + + Changes in version 0.4.8.12 - 2024-06-06 This is a minor release with couple bugfixes affecting conflux and logging.
