Changes in version 0.4.8.11 - 2024-04-10
This is a minor release mostly to upgrade the fallbackdir list. Worth noting
also that directory authority running this version will now automatically
reject relays running the end of life 0.4.7.x version.
o Minor feature (authority):
- Reject 0.4.7.x series at the authority level. Closes ticket 40896.
o Minor feature (dirauth, tor26):
- New IP address and keys.
o Minor feature (directory authority):
- Allow BandwidthFiles "node_id" KeyValue without the dollar sign at
the start of the hexdigit, in order to easier database queries
combining Tor documents in which the relays fingerprint does not
include it. Fixes bug 40891; bugfix on 0.4.7 (all supported
versions of Tor).
o Minor features (fallbackdir):
- Regenerate fallback directories generated on April 10, 2024.
o Minor features (geoip data):
- Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as
retrieved on 2024/04/10.
o Minor bugfixes (directory authorities):
- Add a warning when publishing a vote or signatures to another
directory authority fails. Fixes bug 40910; bugfix
on 0.2.0.3-alpha.
Changes in version 0.4.8.10 - 2023-12-08
This is a security release fixing a high severity bug (TROVE-2023-007)
affecting Exit relays supporting Conflux. We strongly recommend to update as
soon as possible.
o Major bugfixes (TROVE-2023-007, exit):
- Improper error propagation from a safety check in conflux leg
linking lead to a desynchronization of which legs were part of a
conflux set, ultimately causing a UAF and NULL pointer dereference
crash on Exit relays. Fixes bug 40897; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha.
o Minor features (fallbackdir):
- Regenerate fallback directories generated on December 08, 2023.
o Minor features (geoip data):
- Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as
retrieved on 2023/12/08.
o Minor bugfixes (bridges, statistics):
- Correctly report statistics for client count over Pluggable
transport. Fixes bug 40871; bugfix on 0.4.8.4
