Old description:
New description:
When checking their own versions against the subprotocol versions listed
in a consensus document, Tor instances could be made to crash if the
consensus was incorrectly formatted.
This is a low-severity bug, since it can only be exploited by corrupting a
majority of directory authorities. (And any attacker who can do that, can
do far worse.)
We're tracking this one as TROVE-2018-004. It was present in
0.2.9.4-alpha and later. It is fixed in 0.2.9.15, 0.3.1.10, 0.3.2.10, and
0.3.3.3-alpha.
