Comment (by arma):

 Replying to [comment:26 dgoulet]:
 > Alice has a long lived connection to let say an IRC server on aaaa.onion
 port 6667. Now, Alice receives an email saying "Hey, can you connect to
 aaaa.onion:6668?" for which the HS does have that port in its exit policy.
 So Alice, connects, the tor client reuses the RP circuit but on a wrong
 port and blam the circuit is killed thus the long lasting connection.

 I think you can do this automatically by having an img link in your
 attacking page, which when Alice visits it, it blows away her existing irc
 connection to that other service.

 > A solution we thought of here is to pin a *good* virtual port on a
 circuit and not accepting connections on it with an other port.

 Right -- basically the proposed fix is to have one circuit per virtualport
 Alice is reaching.

 (It might be that we should re-close this ticket and open a new one for
 the new issue.)
