+Torsocks 1.1
+2010-12-12 Robert Hogan <robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+ o Handle wildcard addresses in getaddrinfo calls. Reported by Mike Perry.
+
+ o Move the address inspection to the end of sendmsg() and sendto()
+ so that we can exit early if the socket is not SOCK_STREAM (i.e.
+ tcp).
+
+ o Exit if Tor DNS is disabled.
+ Exit with an error code if Tor DNS is disabled in the configuration
+ or if we cannot reserve the deadpool address space for .onion
+ addresses.
+
+ o Always print error messages.
+
+ o Allow error logging by default.
+
+ o Style cleanup:
+ No brackets for single-statement conditionals
+ Whitespace fixes in tsocks.c
+ Remove torsocks.kdevelop
+ Remove non-free RFC and replace with link.
+ o Remove USE_TOR_DNS compile guard
+ This is a leftover from the tsocks days. We always want this option
+ enabled.
+
+ o Only enable debug output for debug builds
+ Debug output was printing on release builds and getting suppressed
+ on debug builds - which is the wrong way round!
+
+ o Make a global variable less generic
+ Exporting a global variable called 'progname' is not a good
+ idea if you are a library. Exporting global variables at all
+ is probably a bad idea.
+ For now, make the name less generic - it was causing crashes
+ when torsocks was used with dig.
+ Part of the fix for:
+ http://code.google.com/p/torsocks/issues/detail?id=15
+
+ o Use socket rather than address to determine connection type
+ In sendmsg() and sendto() we were inspecting the sock_addr_t
+ structure to determine if the connection was Internet or not.
+ Since msg->msg_name is an optional value in sendmsg() and
+ sendto() this could result in crashes because we weren't ensuring
+ it was non-null.
+ Since it's optional we should have been inspecting the SO_DOMAIN
+ of the connection's socket anyway - it will always be there.
+ Part of the fix for:
+ http://code.google.com/p/torsocks/issues/detail?id=15
+
+ o Major refactor of symbol hooking
+ Patch by alex@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
+ Make torsocks fully compatible with Snow Leopard OSX.
+ Slim down the symbol hooking code considerably.
+ Alex's notes:
+ "http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/releasenotes/Darwin/SymbolVariantsRelNotes/index.
+ don't have the $UNIX2003 variants. For working 10.6 support, we'll need to
+ conditionalize the UNIX2003 variants off when compiling for 64-bit."
+
+ o Improve compile-time detection of the res* family of system calls
+ Some platforms need to explicitly include resolv.h so cater for
+ that.
+ Thanks to SwissTorExit for reporting and debugging assistance.
+
+ o Do our best to ensure tsocks_init is called only once.
+
+ o Build fix for BSD.
+ Support presence of res_query in libc rather than libresolve.
+
+Torsocks 1.0-epsilon
+2009-11-01 Robert Hogan <robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+
+ o Manpage syntax fixes from Patrick Matthäi <pmatthaei@xxxxxxxxxx>
+
+ o Clarify use of the configuration file.
+
+ Amend the default behaviour to work as summarized below and updated the
+ manual pages to make the default behaviour obvious to users.
+
+ "By default, torsocks will assume that it should connect to the SOCKS proxy
+ running at 127.0.0.1 on port 9050. This is the default address and port for
+ Tor's socks server on most installations.
+
+ In order to use a configuration file, you must set the environment variable
+ TORSOCKS_CONF_FILE with the location of the file.
+
+ If TORSOCKS_CONF_FILE is not set, torsocks will attempt to read the configuration
+ file at @CONFDIR@/torsocks.conf. If that file cannot be read, torsocks will
+ use sensible defaults for most Tor installations, i.e. it will assume that
+ you want to use a SOCKS proxy running at 127.0.0.1 (localhost) on port 9050."
+
+ o Fix compilation in 64-bit OSX.
+
+ o Mac OSX compatibility in tsocks.c
+ Original Patch from Alex Rosenberg <alex@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+
+ 1. Hook OSX-specific syscalls
+ -----------------------------
+ Mac OXS has a number of variants of each syscall. This patch adds
+ hooks for the following OSX variants:
+
+ select() : select_unix2003()
+ select_nocancel()
+ select_darwinextsn_nocancel()
+ select_darwinextsn()
+
+ poll(), connect(), sendmsg(), sendto(), close(): *_unix2003(),
+ *_nocancel()
+ getpeername(): *_unix2003()
+
+ 2. Add Hooking Macros
+ --------------------
+ Move the symbol loading and checking out to macros of the form
+ [syscall]_PATCH:
+
+ PATCH_SELECT, PATCH_CONNECT, PATCH_CLOSE, PATCH_POLL,
+ PATCH_GETPEERNAME, PATCH_SENDTO, PATCH_SENDMSG
+
+ Rename the syshooks to functions of the form *_guts().
+
+ 3. Miscellaneous
+ ----------------
+ Add NONSTD_SOURCE define for Mac OSX.Defining _NONSTD_SOURCE
+ causes library and kernel calls to behave as closely
+ to Mac OS X 10.3's library and kernel calls as possible.
+
+ Use socklen_t instead of int.
+
+ Move get_environment() and get_config() to tsocks_init(),
+ rather than calling adhoc in the syscalls.
+
+ Differentiate between EISCONN and EINPROGRESS errors in
+ connect().
+
+ Original Patch from Alex Rosenberg <alex@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+ http://code.google.com/p/torsocks/issues/detail?id=2#c11
+
+ o Patch torsocks.in for Mac OSX
+ Patch from alexr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
+ Mac OSX uses the DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES and DYLD_FORCE_FLAT_NAMESPACE
+ environment variables to enable/perform syscall-hooking. Also, on
+ Mac OSX dynamically linked libraries use the '*.dylib' extension
+ rather than '*.so'. Alex's patches for torsocks.in and configure.in
+ ensure that we use the appropriate values for Max OSX. Ideally, we
+ wouldn't export DYLD_FORCE_FLAT_NAMESPACE on non-Mac OSX platforms
+ but it is harmless to do so. We'll leave that for another day.
+ The patch also fixes up the sed reg-exp to interpret the 'echo
+ DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES' output as well as that from LD_PRELOAD.
+
+ o Whitespace cleanup in parser.c
+
+ o Add linker checks for Mac OSX. Patch from alexr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
+
+ o Move MAP_ANONYMOUS to common.h
+
+ o LD_PRELOAD is ignored for binaries where setuid/gid is used. As used,
+ torsocks doesn't detect this, which means that it provides a false sense
+ of security when running these types of executables.
+ Added logic that detects setuid/setgid programs and fails early with an
+ error message.
+ Further reorganized the file to simplify flow and improve command line
+ argument handling.
+ Patch by Marcus Griep <marcus@xxxxxxxx>
+
+ o remove aclocal.m4
+
+ o BSD build patch from grarpamp. See http://code.google.com/p/torsocks/issues/detail?id=4.
+
+ o Replace TSOCKS_* environment variables with TORSOCKS_* equivalents as per man page.
+
+ o Remove superfluous include.
+
+ o Fix compilcation on Mac OSX. See http://code.google.com/p/torsocks/issues/detail?id=2
+
+ o Expand reject message for UDP and ICMP requests
+
Torsocks 1.0-delta
2009-02-XX Robert Hogan <robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
o Fix segfault when address supplied for getaddrinfo is null. Reported by Mike Perry.
