Changes in version 0.2.1.29 - 2011-01-15
o Major bugfixes (security):
- Fix a heap overflow bug where an adversary could cause heap
corruption. This bug potentially allows remote code execution
attacks. Reported by "debuger". Fixes CVE-2011-0427. Bugfix on
0.1.2.10-rc.
- Prevent a denial-of-service attack by disallowing any
zlib-compressed data whose compression factor is implausibly
high. Fixes the second part of bug 2324; reported by "doors".
o Minor bugfixes:
- Prevent calls from Libevent from inside Libevent log handlers.
This had potential to cause a nasty set of crashes, especially
if running Libevent with debug logging enabled, and running
Tor with a controller watching for low-severity log messages.
Bugfix on 0.1.0.2-rc. Fixes bug 2190.
- Fix compilation on mingw when a pthreads compatibility library
has been installed. (We don't want to use it, so we shouldn't
be including pthread.h.) Fixes bug 2313; bugfix on 0.1.0.1-rc.
- Add a check for SIZE_T_MAX to tor_realloc() to try to avoid
underflow errors there too. Fixes bug 2324.
- Fix a bug where we would assert if we ever had a
cached-descriptors.new file (or another file read directly into
memory) of exactly SIZE_T_CEILING bytes. Found by doors; fixes
bug 2326; bugfix on 0.2.1.25.
- Fix a bug where we would declare that we had run out of virtual
addresses when the address space was only half-exhausted. Bugfix
on 0.1.2.1-alpha.
- Correctly handle the case where AutomapHostsOnResolve is set but no
virtual addresses are available. Fixes bug2328, bugfix on
0.1.2.1-alpha. Bug found by doorss.
- Correctly handle wrapping around to when we run out of virtual
address space. Found by cypherpunks, bugfix on 0.2.0.5-alpha.
- Fix a bug with handling misformed replies to reverse DNS lookup
requests in DNSPort. Bugfix on Tor 0.2.0.1-alpha. Related to a
bug reported by doorss.
- Fix some potential asserts and partsing issues with grossly
malformed router caches. Fixes bug 2352. Found by doorss. Bugfix
on Tor 0.2.1.27.
- Zero out a few more keys in memory before freeing them. Fixes bug
2384 and part of bug 2385. These key instances found by
"cypherpunks". Bugfix on 0.0.2pre9.
o Minor features:
- Update to the January 1 2011 Maxmind GeoLite Country database.
- Introduce output size checks on all of our decryption functions.
o Build changes:
- Tor does not build packages correctly with Automake 1.6 and earlier;
added a check to Makefile.am to make sure that we're building with
Automake 1.7 or later.
Changes in version 0.2.1.28 - 2010-12-17
Tor 0.2.1.28 does some code cleanup to reduce the risk of remotely
exploitable bugs. We also took this opportunity to change the IP address
