Changes in version 0.2.8.13 - 2017-03-03
Tor 0.2.8.13 backports a security fix from later Tor
releases. Anybody running Tor 0.2.8.12 or earlier should upgrade to this
this release, if for some reason they cannot upgrade to a later
release series, and if they build Tor with the --enable-expensive-hardening
option.
Note that support for Tor 0.2.8.x is ending next year: we will not issue
any fixes for the Tor 0.2.8.x series after 1 Jan 2018. If you need
a Tor release series with longer-term support, we recommend Tor 0.2.9.x.
o Major bugfixes (parsing, backported from 0.3.0.4-rc):
- Fix an integer underflow bug when comparing malformed Tor
versions. This bug could crash Tor when built with
--enable-expensive-hardening, or on Tor 0.2.9.1-alpha through Tor
0.2.9.8, which were built with -ftrapv by default. In other cases
it was harmless. Part of TROVE-2017-001. Fixes bug 21278; bugfix
on 0.0.8pre1. Found by OSS-Fuzz.
o Minor features (geoip):
- Update geoip and geoip6 to the February 8 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2
Country database.
