Changes in version 0.2.4.19 - 2013-12-11
|
||||||
|
The Tor 0.2.4 release series is dedicated to the memory of Aaron Swartz
|
||||||
|
(1986-2013). Aaron worked on diverse projects including helping to guide
|
||||||
|
Creative Commons, playing a key role in stopping SOPA/PIPA, bringing
|
||||||
|
transparency to the U.S government's PACER documents, and contributing
|
||||||
|
design and development for Tor and Tor2Web. Aaron was one of the latest
|
||||||
|
martyrs in our collective fight for civil liberties and human rights,
|
||||||
|
and his death is all the more painful because he was one of us.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Tor 0.2.4.19, the first stable release in the 0.2.4 branch, features
|
||||||
|
a new circuit handshake and link encryption that use ECC to provide
|
||||||
|
better security and efficiency; makes relays better manage circuit
|
||||||
|
creation requests; uses "directory guards" to reduce client enumeration
|
||||||
|
risks; makes bridges collect and report statistics about the pluggable
|
||||||
|
transports they support; cleans up and improves our geoip database;
|
||||||
|
gets much closer to ipv6 support for clients, bridges, and relays; makes
|
||||||
|
directory authorities use measured bandwidths rather than advertised
|
||||||
|
ones when computing flags and thresholds; disables client-side DNS
|
||||||
|
caching to reduce tracking risks; and fixes a big bug in bridge
|
||||||
|
reachability testing. This new release introduces two new design
|
||||||
|
abstractions in the code: a new "channel" abstraction between circuits
|
||||||
|
and or_connections to allow for implementing alternate relay-to-relay
|
||||||
|
transports, and a new "circuitmux" abstraction storing the queue of
|
||||||
|
circuits for a channel. It also includes many stability, security,
|
||||||
|
and privacy fixes.
