It fixes + several bugs in previous versions, including some that caused annoying + behavior for relay and bridge operators. + + o Minor features (security): + - Channels using obsolete versions of the Tor link protocol are no + longer allowed to circumvent address-canonicity checks. (This is + only a minor issue, since such channels have no way to set ed25519 + keys, and therefore should always be rejected for circuits that + specify ed25519 identities.) Closes ticket 40081. + + o Minor features (defense in depth): + - Wipe more data from connection address fields before returning + them to the memory heap. Closes ticket 6198. + + o Minor bugfixes (correctness, buffers): + - Fix a correctness bug that could cause an assertion failure if we + ever tried using the buf_move_all() function with an empty input + buffer. As far as we know, no released versions of Tor do this. + Fixes bug 40076; bugfix on 0.3.3.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (linux seccomp2 sandbox): + - Fix startup crash with seccomp sandbox enabled when tor tries to + open the data directory. Patch from Daniel Pinto. Fixes bug 40072; + bugfix on 0.4.4.3-alpha-dev. + + o Minor bugfixes (onion service v3): + - Remove a BUG() warning that could trigger in certain unlikely + edge-cases. Fixes bug 34086; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (rate limiting, bridges, pluggable transports): + - On a bridge, treat all connections from an ExtORPort as remote by + default for the purposes of rate-limiting. Previously, bridges + would treat the connection as local unless they explicitly + received a "USERADDR" command. ExtORPort connections still count + as local if there is a USERADDR command with an explicit local + address. Fixes bug 33747; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay, self-testing): + - When starting up as a relay, if we haven't been able to verify + that we're reachable, only launch reachability tests at most once + a minute. Previously, we had been launching tests up to once a + second, which was needlessly noisy. Fixes bug 40083; bugfix + on 0.2.8.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing): + - When running the subsystem order check, use the python binary + configured with the PYTHON environment variable. Fixes bug 40095; + bugfix on 0.4.4.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (windows): + - Fix a bug that prevented Tor from starting if its log file grew + above 2GB. Fixes bug 31036; bugfix on 0.2.1.8-alpha. + + Changes in version 0.4.4.3-alpha - 2020-07-27 Tor 0.4.4.3-alpha fixes several annoyances in previous versions, including one affecting NSS users, and several affecting the Linux |
