Changes in version 0.3.2.1-alpha - 2017-09-18
|

BLURB
|
||||
Tor 0.3.2.1-alpha is the first release in the 0.3.2.x series. It
|
||||
includes support for our next-generation ("v3") onion service
|
||||
protocol, and adds a new circuit scheduler for more responsive
|
||||
forwarding decisions from relays. There are also numerous other
|
||||
small features and bugfixes here.
|
||||
|
||||
Below are the changes since Tor 0.3.1.7.

o Major bugfixes (usability, control port):

- Report trusted clock skew indications as bootstrap errors, so

controllers can more easily alert users. Fixes bug 23506; bugfix
|

controllers can more easily alert users when their clocks are

wrong. Fixes bug 23506; bugfix

|

|
||||
o Minor features (bug detection):
|
||||
- Log a warning message, with stack trace, for any attempt to call
|
||||
get_options() during option validation. Closes ticket 22281.
|

|

o Minor features (client directory bandwidth tuning):
|
||||
o Minor features (client):
|
||||
- You can now use Tor as a tunneled HTTP proxy: use the
|
||||
HTTPTunnelPort option to open a port that accepts HTTP CONNECT
|
||||
requests. Closes ticket 22407.
|
||||
- Add an extra check to make sure that we always use the new guard
|
||||
selection code for picking our guards. Closes ticket 22779.
|
||||
- When downloading (micro)descriptors, don't split the list of
|
||||
descriptors into multiple requests unless there are at least 32
|
||||
descriptors that we want. Previously, we split at 4, not 32, which
|
||||
could lead to significant overhead in HTTP request size and
|
||||
degradation in compression performance. Closes ticket 23220.

the current signing key is going to expire. Implements ticket

- Provide better error message for GETINFO desc/(id|name) when
|
||||
microdescriptors are in use and router descriptors are not
|

fetched. Closes ticket 5847. Patch by Kevin Butler.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (control):
|
||||
- Add GETINFO desc/download-enabled and md/download-enabled, to
|

inform the controller whether try to download router descriptors
|
||||
and microdescriptors respectively. Closes ticket 22684.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (controller):
|

- Added new GETINFO targets ip-to-country/{ipv4,ipv6}-available, so
|

controllers can tell whether the geoip databases are loaded.

o Minor bugfix (relay address resolution):

- Avoid unnecessary calls to directory_fetches_from_authorities() on

relays. This avoids spurious address resolutions and descriptor

- Properly detect and refuse to blind bad ed25519 keys. The key

blinding code is currently unused, so this bug does not affect tor

o Minor bugfixes (directories):

o Minor bugfixes (directory protocol):
|

- Directory servers now include a "Date:" http header for response

codes other than 200. Clients starting with a skewed clock and a

recent consensus were getting "304 Not modified" responses from

directory authorities, so without a Date header the client would

never hear about a wrong clock. Fixes bug 23499; bugfix
