Changes in version 0.2.2.27-beta - 2011-05-18
Tor 0.2.2.27-beta fixes a bridge-related stability bug in the previous
release, and also adds a few more general bugfixes.
o Major bugfixes:
- Fix a crash bug when changing bridges in a running Tor process.
Fixes bug 3213; bugfix on 0.2.2.26-beta.
- When the controller configures a new bridge, don't wait 10 to 60
seconds before trying to fetch its descriptor. Bugfix on
0.2.0.3-alpha; fixes bug 3198 (suggested by 2355).
o Minor bugfixes:
- Require that onion keys have exponent 65537 in microdescriptors too.
Fixes more of bug 3207; bugfix on 0.2.2.26-beta.
- Tor used to limit HttpProxyAuthenticator values to 48 characters.
Changed the limit to 512 characters by removing base64 newlines.
Fixes bug 2752. Fix by Michael Yakubovich.
- When a client starts or stops using bridges, never use a circuit
that was built before the configuration change. This behavior could
put at risk a user who uses bridges to ensure that her traffic
only goes to the chosen addresses. Bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha; fixes
bug 3200.
