Implements proposal 215; closes ticket 10163.
Why? From proposal 215:
Consensus method 1 is no longer viable for the Tor network. It
doesn't result in a microdescriptor consensus, and omits other
fields that clients need in order to work well. Consensus methods
under 12 have security issues, since they let a single authority
set a consensus parameter.
...
For example, while Tor 0.2.4.x is under development, authorities
should really not be running anything before Tor 0.2.3.x. Tor
0.2.3.x has supported consensus method 13 since 0.2.3.21-rc, so
it's okay for 0.2.4.x to require 13 as the minimum method. We even
might go back to method 12, since the worst outcome of not using 13
would be some warnings in client logs. Consensus method 12 was a
security improvement, so we don't want to roll back before that.
When we merged the cookieauthfile creation logic in 33c3e60a37, we
accidentally took out this feature. Fixes bug 12864, bugfix on
0.2.5.1-alpha.
Also adds an ExtORPortCookieAuthFileGroupReadable, since there's no
reason not to.
I looked for other places where we set circ->n_chan early, and found
one in circuit_handle_first_hop() right before it calls
circuit_send_next_onion_skin(). If onion_skin_create() fails there,
then n_chan will still be set when circuit_send_next_onion_skin()
returns. We should probably fix that too.
When Tor starts with DisabledNetwork set, it would correctly
conclude that it shouldn't try making circuits, but it would
mistakenly cache this conclusion and continue believing it even
when DisableNetwork is set to 0. Fixes the bug introduced by the
fix for bug 11200; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha.
Those used to be normal to receive on hidden service circuits due to bug
1038, but the buggy Tor versions are long gone from the network so we
can afford to resume watching for them. Resolves the rest of bug 1038;
bugfix on 0.2.1.19.
Roger spotted this on tor-dev in his comments on proposal 221.
(Actually, detect DESTROY vs everything else, since arma likes
network timeout indicating failure but not overload indicating failure.)
This function is supposed to construct a list of all the ciphers in
the "v2 link protocol cipher list" that are supported by Tor's
openssl. It does this by invoking ssl23_get_cipher_by_char on each
two-byte ciphersuite ID to see which ones give a match. But when
ssl23_get_cipher_by_char cannot find a match for a two-byte SSL3/TLS
ciphersuite ID, it checks to see whether it has a match for a
three-byte SSL2 ciphersuite ID. This was causing a read off the end
of the 'cipherid' array.
This was probably harmless in practice, but we shouldn't be having
any uninitialized reads.
(Using ssl23_get_cipher_by_char in this way is a kludge, but then
again the entire existence of the v2 link protocol is kind of a
kludge. Once Tor 0.2.2 clients are all gone, we can drop this code
entirely.)
Found by starlight. Fix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. Fixes bug 12227.
