It turns out this can happen. Even though there is no reason for
connections to be marked but reading, we leave them reading anyway,
so warning here is unwarranted. Let's turn that back on once we do
something sensible and disable reading when we mark. Bugfix for
6203 on Tor 0.2.3.17-beta.
Thanks to cypherpunks for pointing out the general stupidity of the
original code here.
On some platforms, the linker is perfectly happy to produce binaries
that won't run if you give it the wrong set of flags. So when not
cross-compiling, try to link-and-run a little test program, rather
than just linking it.
Possible fix for 6173.
Previously, a directory would check the latest NS consensus for
having the signatures the client wanted, and use that consensus's
valid_until time to set the HTTP lifetime. With this patch, the
directory looks at NS consensus or the microdesc consensus,
depending on what the client asked for.
The warning message of validate_pluggable_transports_config() is
superseded by the changes in the warning message of
connection_or_connect() when the proxy credentials can't be found.
This is a feature removal: we no longer fake any ciphersuite other
than the not-really-standard SSL_RSA_FIPS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
(0xfeff). This change will let servers rely on our actually
supporting what we claim to support, and thereby let Tor migrate to
better TLS ciphersuites.
As a drawback, Tor instances that use old openssl versions and
openssl builds with ciphers disabled will no longer give the
"firefox" cipher list.
Manually removed range 0.116.0.0 to 0.119.255.255 which Maxmind says is
assigned to AT. This is very likely a bug in their database, because
0.0.0.0/8 is a reserved range.
From what I can tell, this configuration is usually a mistake, and
leads people to think that all their traffic is getting proxied when
in fact practically none of it is. Resolves the issue behind "bug"
4663.
