Changes in version 0.3.0.4-??? - 2017-02-??
Changes in version 0.3.0.4-rc - 2017-03-??
Tor 0.3.0.4-rc fixes some remaining bugs, large and small, in the 0.3.0
release series, and introduces a few reliability features to keep them
from coming back.
This is the first release candidate in the Tor 0.3.0 series.
If we find no new bugs or regressions here, the first stable 0.2.8
release will be identical to it.
o Major bugfixes (bridges):
- When the same bridge is configured multiple times at different
address:port combinations (but with the same identity), treat
those bridge instances as separate guards. This allows clients to
configure the same bridge with multiple pluggable transports, once
again. Fixes bug 21027; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (hidden service directory v3):
- When a descriptor lookup was done and it was not found in the directory
cache, it would crash on a NULL pointer instead of returning the 404
code back to the client like it was suppose to. Fixes bug 21471;
bugfixes on tor-0.3.0.1-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (HTTP, parsing):
- When parsing a malformed content-length field from an HTTP message,
do not read off the end of the buffer. This bug was a potential
remote denial-of-service attack against Tor clients and relays.
A workaround was released in October 2016, which prevents this
bug from crashing Tor. This is a fix for the underlying issue,
which should no longer matter (if you applied the earlier patch).
Fixes bug 20894; bugfix on 0.2.0.16-alpha. Bug found by fuzzing
using AFL (http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/).
o Major bugfixes (parsing):
- Fix an integer underflow bug when comparing malformed Tor versions.
This bug is harmless, except when Tor has been built with
--enable-expensive-hardening, which would turn it into a crash;
or on Tor 0.2.9.1-alpha through Tor 0.2.9.8, which were built with
-ftrapv by default.
Part of TROVE-2017-001. Fixes bug 21278; bugfix on
0.0.8pre1. Found by OSS-Fuzz.
o Minor feature (protover):
- Add new protocol version for proposal 224. HSIntro now advertises
version "3-4" and HSDir version "1-2". Fixes ticket 20656.
o Minor features (directory authority):
- Directory authorities now reject descriptors that claim to be
malformed versions of Tor. Helps prevent exploitation of bug 21278.
o Minor features (geoip):
- Update geoip and geoip6 to the February 8 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2
Country database.
o Minor features (reliability, crash):
- Try better to detect problems in buffers where they might grow (or
think they have grown) over 2 GB in size. Diagnostic for bug 21369.
o Minor features (testing):
- During 'make test-network-all', if tor logs any warnings, ask chutney
to output them. Requires a recent version of chutney with the 21572
patch.
Implements 21570.
o Minor bugfixes (certificate expiration time):
- Avoid using link certificates that don't become valid till
some time in the future. Fixes bug 21420; bugfix on 0.2.4.11-alpha
o Minor bugfixes (code correctness):
- Repair a couple of (unreachable or harmless) cases of the risky
comparison-by-subtraction pattern that caused bug 21278.
o Minor bugfixes (correctness):
- Remove a redundant check for the UseEntryGuards option from the
options_transition_affects_guards() function. Fixes bug 21492;
bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (directory mirrors):
- Allow relays to use directory mirrors without a DirPort: these relays
need to be contacted over their ORPorts using a begindir connection.
Fixes bug 20711; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha.
- Clarify the message logged when a remote relay is unexpectedly missing
an ORPort or DirPort: users were confusing this with a local port.
Fixes bug 20711; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (guards):
- Don't warn about a missing guard state on timeout-measurement
circuits: they aren't supposed to be using guards. Fixes an
instance of bug 21007; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (hidden service):
- When encoding a legacy ESTABLISH_INTRO cell, we were using the sizeof()
on a pointer instead of real size of the destination buffer leading to
an overflow passing an enormous value to the signing digest function.
Fortunately, that value was only used to make sure the destination
buffer length was big enough for the key size and in this case it was.
Fixes bug 21553; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (testing):
- Fix Raspbian build missing socket errno in test util. Fixes bug 21116;
bugfix on tor-0.2.8.2. Patch by "hein".
- Rename "make fuzz" to "make test-fuzz-corpora", since it doesn't
actually fuzz anything. Fixes bug 21447; bugfix on 0.3.0.3-alpha.
- Use bash in src/test/test-network.sh. This ensures we reliably call
chutney's newer tools/test-network.sh when available.
Fixes bug 21562; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (voting consistency):
- Reject version numbers with components that exceed INT32_MAX.
Otherwise 32-bit and 64-bit platforms would behave inconsistently.
Fixes bug 21450; bugfix on 0.0.8pre1.
o Documentation:
- Small fixes to the fuzzing documentation. Closes ticket
21472.
