This eighth development snapshot fixes a crash bug that's been bothering
us since February 2007, lets bridge authorities store a list of bridge
descriptors they've seen, gets v3 directory voting closer to working,
starts caching v3 directory consensus documents on directory mirrors,
and fixes a variety of smaller issues including some minor memory leaks.
o Major features (router descriptor cache):
- Store routers in a file called cached-descriptors instead of in
cached-routers. Initialize cached-descriptors from cached-routers

This seventh development snapshot makes bridges work again, makes bridge
authorities work for the first time, fixes two huge performance flaws
in hidden services, and fixes a variety of minor issues.
o New directory authorities:
- Set up moria1 and tor26 as the first v3 directory authorities. See

Changes in version 0.1.2.17 - 2007-08-30
Tor 0.1.2.17 features a new Vidalia version in the Windows and OS
X bundles. Vidalia 0.0.14 makes authentication required for the
ControlPort in the default configuration, which addresses important
security risks. Everybody who uses Vidalia (or another controller)
should upgrade.
In addition, this Tor update fixes major load balancing problems with
path selection, which should speed things up a lot once many people
have upgraded.
o Major bugfixes (security):
- We removed support for the old (v0) control protocol. It has been
deprecated since Tor 0.1.1.1-alpha, and keeping it secure has

In addition, this snapshot fixes major load balancing problems

mean-time-between-failure approach to tracking which servers are stable,
rather than just looking at the most recent uptime.

This fifth development snapshot fixes compilation on Windows again;
fixes an obnoxious client-side bug that slowed things down and put
extra load on the network; gets us closer to using the v3 directory
voting scheme; makes it easier for Tor controllers to use cookie-based
authentication; and fixes a variety of other bugs.
o Removed features:
- Version 1 directories are no longer generated in full. Instead,
authorities generate and serve "stub" v1 directories that list

Changes in version 0.1.2.16 - 2007-08-01
Tor 0.1.2.16 fixes a critical security vulnerability that allows a
remote attacker in certain situations to rewrite the user's torrc
configuration file. This can completely compromise anonymity of users
in most configurations, including those running the Vidalia bundles,
TorK, etc. Or worse.
o Major security fixes:
- Close immediately after missing authentication on control port;
do not allow multiple authentication attempts.
Changes in version 0.2.0.4-alpha - 2007-08-01
This fourth development snapshot fixes a critical security vulnerability
for most users, specifically those running Vidalia, TorK, etc. Everybody
should upgrade to either 0.1.2.16 or 0.2.0.4-alpha.

Tor 0.1.2.13, the first stable release of the 0.1.2.x branch, is
finally ready.
This release features some major anonymity fixes, such as safer path
selection; better client performance; faster bootstrapping, better
address detection, and better DNS support for servers; write limiting as
well as read limiting to make servers easier to run; and a huge pile of
other features and bug fixes. The bundles also ship with Vidalia 0.0.11.
o Minor fixes:
- Fix a memory leak when we ask for "all" networkstatuses and we
get one we don't recognize.
