Changes in version 0.4.5.5-rc - 2021-02-01
Tor 0.4.5.5-rc is the third release candidate in its series. We're
coming closer and closer to a stable release series. This release
fixes an annoyance with address detection code, and somewhat mitigates
an ongoing denial-of-service attack.
We anticipate no more code changes between this and the stable
release, though of course that could change.
o Major feature (exit):
- Re-entry into the network is now denied at the Exit level to all
relays' ORPorts and authorities' ORPorts and DirPorts. This change
should help mitgate a set of denial-of-service attacks. Closes
ticket 2667.
o Minor bugfixes (relay, configuration):
- Don't attempt to discover our address (IPv4 or IPv6) if no ORPort
for it can be found in the configuration. Fixes bug 40254; bugfix
on 0.4.5.1-alpha.
Changes in version 0.4.5.4-rc - 2021-01-22
