[tor-bugs] #11216 [BridgeDB]: BridgeDB is parsing PTs from `cached-extrainfo*` files cumulatively
#11216: BridgeDB is parsing PTs from `cached-extrainfo*` files cumulatively
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------

-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
This is causing a bridge whose extrainfo descriptor is in both `cached-
extrainfo` and `cached-extrainfo.new` to have its `transport` lines added
''twice'' to BridgeDB's list of pluggable transports. This is likely what
was causing #9264.
This is easily reproducible: simply generate some fake descriptors, copy
the `cached-extrainfo.new` file to `cached-extrainfo` (each fake
descriptor currently always has exactly two `transport` lines -- one
`obfs2` and one `obfs3`), and start bridgedb:
{{{
git clone https://gitweb.torproject.org/bridgedb.git && cd bridgedb &&
make install
pip install leekspin
generate-OR-descriptors -n 50
cp cached-extrainfo.new cached-extrainfo
bridgedb
}}}
If you do `tail -f bridgedb.log`, you'll see the following lines
confirming the bug:
