+Changes in version 0.2.7.6 - 2015-12-10
|
|
|
+ Tor version 0.2.7.6 fixes a major bug in entry guard selection, as
|
|
|
+ well as a minor bug in hidden service reliability.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ o Major bugfixes (guard selection):
|
|
|
+ - Actually look at the Guard flag when selecting a new directory
|
|
|
+ guard. When we implemented the directory guard design, we
|
|
|
+ accidentally started treating all relays as if they have the Guard
|
|
|
+ flag during guard selection, leading to weaker anonymity and worse
|
|
|
+ performance. Fixes bug 17222; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. Discovered
|
|
|
+ by Mohsen Imani.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ o Minor features (geoip):
|
|
|
+ - Update geoip and geoip6 to the December 1 2015 Maxmind GeoLite2
|
|
|
+ Country database.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ o Minor bugfixes (compilation):
|
|
|
+ - When checking for net/pfvar.h, include netinet/in.h if possible.
|
|
|
+ This fixes transparent proxy detection on OpenBSD. Fixes bug
|
|
|
+ 17551; bugfix on 0.1.2.1-alpha. Patch from "rubiate".
|
|
|
+ - Fix a compilation warning with Clang 3.6: Do not check the
|
|
|
+ presence of an address which can never be NULL. Fixes bug 17781.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ o Minor bugfixes (correctness):
|
|
|
+ - When displaying an IPv6 exit policy, include the mask bits
|
|
|
+ correctly even when the number is greater than 31. Fixes bug
|
|
|
+ 16056; bugfix on 0.2.4.7-alpha. Patch from "gturner".
|
|
|
+ - The wrong list was used when looking up expired intro points in a
|
|
|
+ rend service object, causing what we think could be reachability
|
|
|
+ issues for hidden services, and triggering a BUG log. Fixes bug
|
|
|
+ 16702; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha.
|
|
|
+ - Fix undefined behavior in the tor_cert_checksig function. Fixes
|
|
|
+ bug 17722; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha.
