Changes in version 0.2.3.2-alpha - 2011-07-18
|
||||
o Major features:
|
||||
- Clients can now use microdescriptors instead of regular descriptors
|
||||
to build circuits. Microdescriptors are authority-generated and
|
||||
authority-authenticated summaries of regular descriptors' contents,
|
||||
designed to change very rarely (see proposal 158 for details). This
|
||||
feature is designed to save bandwidth, especially for clients on
|
||||
slow internet connections. It's off by default for now, since
|
||||
nearly no caches support it, but it will be on-by-default for
|
||||
clients in a future version. You can use the UseMicrodescriptors
|
||||
option to turn it on.
|
||||
- Tor clients using bridges can now be configured to use a separate
|
||||
'transport' proxy for each bridge. This approach helps to resist
|
||||
censorship by allowing bridges to use protocol obfuscation
|
||||
plugins. It implements part of proposal 180. Implements ticket 2841.
|
||||
- While we're trying to bootstrap, record how many TLS connections
|
||||
fail in each state, and report which states saw the most failures
|
||||
in response to any bootstrap failures. This feature may speed up
|
||||
diagnosis of censorship events. Implements ticket 3116.
|
||||
|
||||
o Major bugfixes (on 0.2.3.1-alpha):
|
||||
- When configuring a large set of nodes in EntryNodes (as with
|
||||
'EntryNodes {cc}' or 'EntryNodes 1.1.1.1/16'), choose only a
|
||||
random subset to be guards, and choose them in random
|
||||
order. Fixes bug 2798.
|
||||
- Fix a crash bug that could occur when setting a consensus in a
|
||||
non-used consensus flavor without having a current consensus set.
|
||||
Fixes bug 3361.
|
||||
- Fix a bug where comparing an unknown address to a microdescriptor's
|
||||
shortened exit policy would always seem to give a "rejected" result.
|
||||
Fixes bug 3599.
|
||||
- Using microdescriptors no longer prevents Tor from uploading and
|
||||
downloading hidden service descriptors. Fixes bug 3601.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features:
|
||||
- Allow nameservers with IPv6 address. Resolves bug 2574.
|
||||
- Accept attempts to include a password authenticator in the
|
||||
handshake, as supported by SOCKS5. This handles SOCKS clients that
|
||||
don't know how to omit a password when authenticating. Resolves
|
||||
bug 1666.
|
||||
- When configuring a large set of nodes in EntryNodes, and there are
|
||||
enough of them listed as Guard so that we don't need to consider
|
||||
the non-guard entries, prefer the ones listed with the Guard flag.
|
||||
- Check for and recover from inconsistency in the microdescriptor
|
||||
cache. This will make it harder for us to accidentally free a
|
||||
microdescriptor without removing it from the appropriate data
|
||||
structures. Fixes issue 3135; issue noted by "wanoskarnet".
|
||||
- Log SSL state transitions at log level DEBUG, log domain
|
||||
HANDSHAKE. This can be useful for debugging censorship events.
|
||||
Implements ticket 3264.
|
||||
- Add port 6523 (Gobby) to LongLivedPorts. Patch by intrigeri;
|
||||
implements ticket 3439.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.3.1-alpha):
|
||||
- Do not free all general-purpose regular descriptors just
|
||||
because microdescriptor use is enabled. Fixes bug 3113.
|
||||
- Correctly link libevent_openssl when --enable-static-libevent
|
||||
is passed to configure. Fixes bug 3118.
|
||||
- Bridges should not complain that they are unlisted in the consensus:
|
||||
that's more or less the point of being a bridge. Fixes bug 3183.
|
||||
- Report a SIGNAL event to controllers when acting on a delayed
|
||||
SIGNAL NEWNYM command. Previously, we would report a SIGNAL
|
||||
event to the controller if we acted on a SIGNAL NEWNYM command
|
||||
immediately, and otherwise not report a SIGNAL event for the
|
||||
command at all. Fixes bug 3349.
|
||||
- Fix a crash when handling the SIGNAL controller command or
|
||||
reporting ERR-level status events with bufferevents enabled. Found
|
||||
by Robert Ransom. Fixes bug 3367.
|
||||
- Always ship the tor-fw-helper manpage in our release tarballs.
|
||||
Fixes bug 3389. Reported by Stephen Walker.
|
||||
- Fix a class of double-mark-for-close bugs when bufferevents
|
||||
are enabled. Fixes bug 3403.
|
||||
- Update tor-fw-helper to support libnatpmp-20110618; fixes 3434.
|
||||
- Add SIGNAL to the list returned by the 'GETINFO events/names'
|
||||
control-port command. Fixes part of bug 3465.
|
||||
- Prevent using negative indices during unit test runs when read_all()
|
||||
fails. Spotted by coverity.
|
||||
- Fix a rare memory leak when checking the nodelist without it being
|
||||
present. Found by coverity.
|
||||
- Only try to download a microdescriptor-flavored consensus from
|
||||
a directory cache that provides them.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.2.x and earlier):
|
||||
- Assert that hidden-service-related operations are not performed
|
||||
using single-hop circuits. Previously, Tor would assert that
|
||||
client-side streams are not attached to single-hop circuits,
|
||||
but not that other sensitive operations on the client and service
|
||||
side are not performed using single-hop circuits. Fixes bug 3332;
|
||||
bugfix on 0.0.6.
|
||||
- Don't publish a new relay descriptor when we reload our onion key,
|
||||
unless the onion key has actually changed. Fixes bug 3263 and
|
||||
resolves another cause of bug 1810. Bugfix on 0.1.1.11-alpha.
|
||||
- Allow GETINFO fingerprint to return a fingerprint even when
|
||||
we have not yet built a router descriptor. Fixes bug 3577;
|
||||
bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha.
|
||||
- Make 'tor --digests' list hashes of all Tor source files.
|
||||
Bugfix on 0.2.2.4-alpha; fixes bug 3427.
|
||||
|
||||
o Code simplification and refactoring:
|
||||
- Use tor_sscanf() in place of scanf() in more places through the
|
||||
code. This makes us a little more locale-independent, and
|
||||
should help shut up code-analysis tools that can't tell
|
||||
a safe sscanf string from a dangerous one.
|
||||
- Use tt_assert(), not tor_assert(), for checking for test failures.
|
||||
This makes the unit tests more able to go on in the event that
|
||||
one of them fails.
|
||||
- Split connection_about_to_close() into separate functions for each
|
||||
connection type.
|
||||
|
||||
o Build changes:
|
||||
- On Windows, we now define the _WIN32_WINNT macros only if they
|
||||
are not already defined. This lets the person building Tor decide,
|
||||
if they want, to require a later version of Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Changes in version 0.2.2.30-rc - 2011-07-07
|
||||
Tor 0.2.2.30-rc is the first release candidate for the Tor 0.2.2.x
|
||||
series. It fixes a few smaller bugs, but generally appears stable.
