o Major features:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- The updating and usage of DNS cache is now configurable on a
|
||
|
per- client-port level. SOCKSPort, DNSPort, etc lines may now
|
||
|
contain {No,}Cache{IPv4,IPv6,}DNS lines to indicate that we
|
||
|
shouldn't cache these types of DNS answers when we receive them
|
||
|
from an exit node in response to a request from this port, and
|
||
|
{No,}UseCached{IPv4,IPv6,DNS} lines to indicate that if we have
|
||
|
cached DNS answers of these types, we shouldn't use them. It's
|
||
|
potentially risky to use cached DNS answers at the client,
|
||
|
since doing so can indicate to one exit
|
||
|
what answers we've gotten for DNS lookups in the past. With
|
||
|
IPv6, this becomes especially problematic. Using cached DNS
|
||
|
answers for requests on the same circuit would present less
|
||
|
linkability risk, since all traffic on a circuits is already
|
||
|
linkable, but it would also provide little performance benefit:
|
||
|
the exit node caches DNS replies too. Implements a simplified
|
||
|
version of Proposal 205.
