Changes in version 0.2.8.16 - 2017-10-25
Tor 0.2.8.16 backports a collection of bugfixes from later Tor release
series, including a bugfix for a crash issue that had affected relays
under memory pressure. It also adds a new directory authority, Bastet.
Note: the Tor 0.2.8 series will no longer be supported after 1 Jan
2018. If you need a release with long-term support, please stick with
the 0.2.9 series. Otherwise, please upgrade to 0.3.1 or later.
o Directory authority changes:
- Add "Bastet" as a ninth directory authority to the default list.
Closes ticket 23910.
- The directory authority "Longclaw" has changed its IP address.
Closes ticket 23592.
o Major bugfixes (relay, crash, assertion failure, backport from 0.3.2.2-alpha):
- Fix a timing-based assertion failure that could occur when the
circuit out-of-memory handler freed a connection's output buffer.
Fixes bug 23690; bugfix on 0.2.6.1-alpha.
o Minor features (directory authorities, backport from 0.3.2.2-alpha):
- Remove longclaw's IPv6 address, as it will soon change. Authority
IPv6 addresses were originally added in 0.2.8.1-alpha. This leaves
3/8 directory authorities with IPv6 addresses, but there are also
52 fallback directory mirrors with IPv6 addresses. Resolves 19760.
o Minor features (geoip):
- Update geoip and geoip6 to the October 4 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2
Country database.
