Changes in version 0.2.0.3-alpha - 2007-??-??
|
||||
o Removed features:
|
||||
- Stop allowing address masks that do not correspond to bit prefixes.
|
||||
We have warned about these for a really long time; now it's time
|
||||
to reject them. (Patch from croup.)
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features:
|
||||
- Create listener connections before we setuid to the configured User and
|
||||
Group. This way, you can choose port values under 1024, start Tor as
|
||||
root, and have Tor bind those ports before it changes to another UID.
|
||||
- tor-gencert creates all files as readable to the file creator only, and
|
||||
write-protects the authority identity key.
|
||||
o Major features:
|
||||
- Create listener connections before we setuid to the configured
|
||||
User and Group. Now you can choose port values under 1024, start
|
||||
Tor as root, and have Tor bind those ports before it changes to
|
||||
another UID.
|
||||
- New ConstrainedSockets option to set SO_SNDBUF and SO_RCVBUF on TCP
|
||||
sockets. (Patch from coderman.)
|
||||
- When dumping memory usage, list bytes used in buffer memory free-lists.
|
||||
sockets. Hopefully useful for Tor servers running on "vserver"
|
||||
accounts. (Patch from coderman.)
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (directory authority):
|
||||
- Fail quickly and (relatively) harmlessly if we generate a network
|
||||
status document that is somehow malformed.
|
||||
o Security fixes:
|
||||
- Directory authorities now call routers Fast if their bandwidth is
|
||||
at least 100KB/s, and consider their bandwidth adequate to be a
|
||||
Guard if it is at least 250KB/s, no matter the medians. This fix
|
||||
complements proposal 107. [Bugfix on 0.1.2.x]
|
||||
|
||||
o Major bugfixes (directory):
|
||||
- Rewrite directory tokenization code to never run off the end of
|
||||
a string. Fixes bug 455. Patch from croup. [Bugfix on 0.1.2.x]

- Add a RESOLVE command to launch hostname lookups. (Original patch

from Robert Hogan.)

- Add GETINFO status/enough-dir-info to let controllers tell whether

Tor has downloaded sufficient directory information. (Patch from Tup.)

- You can now use the ControlSocket option to tell Tor to listen for
|

controller connections on Unix domain sockets on systems that support
|

them. (Patch from Peter Palfrader.)
|
||||
- STREAM NEW events are generated for DNSPort requests and for tunneled
|
||||
directory connections. (Patch from Robert Hogan.)
|
||||
- New GETINFO address-mappings/* command to get address mappings with
|

expiry information. addr-mappings/* is now deprecated.
