ports have been configured. You can change this behavior with the
new option KeepBindCapabilities. Closes ticket 8195.
o Major bugfixes (bridges, pluggable transports):
- Modify the check for OR connections to private addresses. Allow
bridges on private addresses, including pluggable transports that
ignore the (potentially private) address in the bridge line. Fixes
bug 18517; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. Reported by gk, patch by teor.
o Major bugfixes (client, bootstrapping):
- Check if bootstrap consensus downloads are still needed when the
linked connection attaches. This prevents tor making unnecessary

- Make relays retry consensus downloads the correct number of times,
rather than the more aggressive client retry count. Fixes part of
ticket 18809.
- Stop downloading consensuses when we have a consensus, even if we
don't have all the certificates for it yet. Fixes bug 18809;
bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. Patches by arma and teor.
o Major bugfixes (compilation):
- Repair hardened builds under the clang compiler. Previously, our
use of _FORTIFY_SOURCE would conflict with clang's address
sanitizer. Fixes bug 14821; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (crash on shutdown):
- Correctly handle detaching circuits from muxes when shutting down.
Fixes bug 18116; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
- Fix an assert-on-exit bug related to counting memory usage in
rephist.c. Fixes bug 18651; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (crash on startup):
- Fix a segfault during startup: If a Unix domain socket was
configured as listener (such as a ControlSocket or a SocksPort
"unix:" socket), and tor was started as root but not configured to
switch to another user, tor would segfault while trying to string
compare a NULL value. Fixes bug 18261; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
Patch by weasel.
o Major bugfixes (directory mirrors):
- Decide whether to advertise begindir support in the the same way
we decide whether to advertise our DirPort. Allowing these
decisions to become out-of-sync led to surprising behavior like
advertising begindir support when hibernation made us not
advertise a DirPort. Resolves bug 18616; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
Patch by teor.
o Major bugfixes (dns proxy mode, crash):
- Avoid crashing when running as a DNS proxy. Fixes bug 16248;
bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha. Patch from "cypherpunks".
o Major bugfixes (IPv6 bridges, client):
- Actually use IPv6 addresses when selecting directory addresses for
IPv6 bridges. Fixes bug 18921; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. Patch
by "teor".
o Major bugfixes (key management):
- If OpenSSL fails to generate an RSA key, do not retain a dangling
pointer to the previous (uninitialized) key value. The impact here

0.2.1.10-alpha. Found by Yuan Jochen Kang, Suman Jana, and
Baishakhi Ray.
o Major bugfixes (relays, bridge clients):
- Ensure relays always allow IPv4 OR and Dir connections. Ensure
bridge clients use the address configured in the bridge line.

o Minor features (fallback directory mirrors):
- Give each fallback the same weight for client selection; restrict
fallbacks to one per operator; report fallback directory detail
changes when rebuilding list; add new fallback directory mirrors
to the whitelist; update fallback directories based on the latest
OnionOO data; and any other minor simplifications and fixes.
