+Changes in version 0.2.2.20-alpha - 2010-12-17
+ Tor 0.2.2.20-alpha does some code cleanup to reduce the risk of remotely
+ exploitable bugs. We also fix a variety of other significant bugs,
+ change the IP address for one of our directory authorities, and update
+ the minimum version that Tor relays must run to join the network.
+
+ o Major bugfixes:
+ - Fix a remotely exploitable bug that could be used to crash instances
+ of Tor remotely by overflowing on the heap. Remote-code execution
+ hasn't been confirmed, but can't be ruled out. Everyone should
+ upgrade. Bugfix on the 0.1.1 series and later.
+ - Fix a bug that could break accounting on 64-bit systems with large
+ time_t values, making them hibernate for impossibly long intervals.
+ Fixes bug 2146. Bugfix on 0.0.9pre6; fix by boboper.
+ - Fix a logic error in directory_fetches_from_authorities() that
+ would cause all _non_-exits refusing single-hop-like circuits
+ to fetch from authorities, when we wanted to have _exits_ fetch
+ from authorities. Fixes more of 2097. Bugfix on 0.2.2.16-alpha;
+ fix by boboper.
+ - Fix a stream fairness bug that would cause newer streams on a given
+ circuit to get preference when reading bytes from the origin or
+ destination. Fixes bug 2210. Fix by Mashael AlSabah. This bug was
+ introduced before the first Tor release, in svn revision r152.
+
+ o Directory authority changes:
+ - Change IP address and ports for gabelmoo (v3 directory authority).
+
+ o Minor bugfixes:
+ - Avoid crashes when AccountingMax is set on clients. Fixes bug 2235.
+ Bugfix on 0.2.2.18-alpha. Diagnosed by boboper.
+ - Fix an off-by-one error in calculating some controller command
+ argument lengths. Fortunately, this mistake is harmless since
+ the controller code does redundant NUL termination too. Found by
+ boboper. Bugfix on 0.1.1.1-alpha.
+ - Do not dereference NULL if a bridge fails to build its
+ extra-info descriptor. Found by an anonymous commenter on
+ Trac. Bugfix on 0.2.2.19-alpha.
+
+ o Minor features:
+ - Update to the December 1 2010 Maxmind GeoLite Country database.
+ - Directory authorities now reject relays running any versions of
+ Tor between 0.2.1.3-alpha and 0.2.1.18 inclusive; they have
+ known bugs that keep RELAY_EARLY cells from working on rendezvous
+ circuits. Followup to fix for bug 2081.
+ - Directory authorities now reject relays running any version of Tor
+ older than 0.2.0.26-rc. That version is the earliest that fetches
+ current directory information correctly. Fixes bug 2156.
+ - Report only the top 10 ports in exit-port stats in order not to
+ exceed the maximum extra-info descriptor length of 50 KB. Implements
+ task 2196.
+ - Build correctly on mingw with more recent version of OpenSSL 0.9.8.
+ Patch from mingw-san.
+
+
+Changes in version 0.2.1.27 - 2010-11-23
+ Yet another OpenSSL security patch broke its compatibility with Tor:
+ Tor 0.2.1.27 makes relays work with openssl 0.9.8p and 1.0.0.b. We
+ also took this opportunity to fix several crash bugs, integrate a new
+ directory authority, and update the bundled GeoIP database.
+
+ o Major bugfixes:
+ - Resolve an incompatibility with OpenSSL 0.9.8p and OpenSSL 1.0.0b:
+ No longer set the tlsext_host_name extension on server SSL objects;
+ but continue to set it on client SSL objects. Our goal in setting
+ it was to imitate a browser, not a vhosting server. Fixes bug 2204;
+ bugfix on 0.2.1.1-alpha.
+ - Do not log messages to the controller while shrinking buffer
+ freelists. Doing so would sometimes make the controller connection
+ try to allocate a buffer chunk, which would mess up the internals
+ of the freelist and cause an assertion failure. Fixes bug 1125;
+ fixed by Robert Ransom. Bugfix on 0.2.0.16-alpha.
+ - Learn our external IP address when we're a relay or bridge, even if
+ we set PublishServerDescriptor to 0. Bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha,
+ where we introduced bridge relays that don't need to publish to
+ be useful. Fixes bug 2050.
+ - Do even more to reject (and not just ignore) annotations on
+ router descriptors received anywhere but from the cache. Previously
+ we would ignore such annotations at first, but cache them to disk
+ anyway. Bugfix on 0.2.0.8-alpha. Found by piebeer.
+ - When you're using bridges and your network goes away and your
+ bridges get marked as down, recover when you attempt a new socks
+ connection (if the network is back), rather than waiting up to an
+ hour to try fetching new descriptors for your bridges. Bugfix on
+ 0.2.0.3-alpha; fixes bug 1981.
+
+ o Major features:
+ - Move to the November 2010 Maxmind GeoLite country db (rather
+ than the June 2009 ip-to-country GeoIP db) for our statistics that
+ count how many users relays are seeing from each country. Now we'll
+ have more accurate data, especially for many African countries.
+
+ o New directory authorities:
+ - Set up maatuska (run by Linus Nordberg) as the eighth v3 directory
+ authority.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes:
+ - Fix an assertion failure that could occur in directory caches or
+ bridge users when using a very short voting interval on a testing
+ network. Diagnosed by Robert Hogan. Fixes bug 1141; bugfix on
+ 0.2.0.8-alpha.
+ - Enforce multiplicity rules when parsing annotations. Bugfix on
+ 0.2.0.8-alpha. Found by piebeer.
+ - Allow handshaking OR connections to take a full KeepalivePeriod
+ seconds to handshake. Previously, we would close them after
+ IDLE_OR_CONN_TIMEOUT (180) seconds, the same timeout as if they
+ were open. Bugfix on 0.2.1.26; fixes bug 1840. Thanks to mingw-san
+ for analysis help.
+ - When building with --enable-gcc-warnings on OpenBSD, disable
+ warnings in system headers. This makes --enable-gcc-warnings
+ pass on OpenBSD 4.8.
+
+ o Minor features:
+ - Exit nodes didn't recognize EHOSTUNREACH as a plausible error code,
+ and so sent back END_STREAM_REASON_MISC. Clients now recognize a new
+ stream ending reason for this case: END_STREAM_REASON_NOROUTE.
+ Servers can start sending this code when enough clients recognize
+ it. Bugfix on 0.1.0.1-rc; fixes part of bug 1793.
+ - Build correctly on mingw with more recent versions of OpenSSL 0.9.8.
+ Patch from mingw-san.
+
+ o Removed files:
+ - Remove the old debian/ directory from the main Tor distribution.
+ The official Tor-for-debian git repository lives at the URL
+ https://git.torproject.org/debian/tor.git
+ - Stop shipping the old doc/website/ directory in the tarball. We
+ changed the website format in late 2010, and what we shipped in
+ 0.2.1.26 really wasn't that useful anyway.
+
