Previously, when we ran low on memory, we'd close whichever circuits
had the most queued cells. Now, we close those that have the
*oldest* queued cells, on the theory that those are most responsible
for us running low on memory, and that those are the least likely to
actually drain on their own if we wait a little longer.
Based on analysis from a forthcoming paper by Jansen, Tschorsch,
Johnson, and Scheuermann. Fixes bug 9093.
As a bridge authority, before we create our networkstatus document, we
should compute the thresholds needed for the various status flags
assigned to each bridge based on the status of all other bridges. We
then add these thresholds to the networkstatus document for easy access.
Fixes for #1117 and #9859.
Also fix a bug where if the guard we choose first doesn't answer, we
would try the second guard, but once we connected to the second guard
we would abandon it and retry the first one, slowing down bootstrapping.
The fix in both cases is to treat all our initially chosen guards as
acceptable to use.
Fixes bug 9946.
We had updated our "do we have enough microdescs to begin building
circuits?" logic most recently in 0.2.4.10-alpha (see bug 5956), but we
left the bootstrap status event logic at "how far through getting 1/4
of them are we?"
Fixes bug 9958; bugfix on 0.2.2.36, which is where they diverged (see
bug 5343).
According to the manpage, bridges use P256 for conformity and relays
use P224 for speed. But skruffy points out that we've gotten it
backwards in the code.
In this patch, we make the default P256 for everybody.
Fixes bug 9780; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.
The old code had logic to use a shorter path length if we didn't
have enough nodes. But we don't support 2-node networks anwyay.
Fix for #9926. I'm not calling this a bugfix on any particular
version, since a 2-node network would fail to work for you for a lot
of other reasons too, and it's not clear to me when that began, or if
2-node networks would ever have worked.
This is probably not an exploitable bug, since you would need to have
errno be a large negative value in the unix pluggable-transport launcher
case. Still, best avoided.
Fixes bug 9928; bugfix on 0.2.3.18-rc.
By calling circuit_n_chan_done() unconditionally on close, we were
closing pending connections that might not have been pending quite for
the connection we were closing. Fix for bug 9880.
Thanks to skruffy for finding this and explaining it patiently until
we understood.
To fix#6033, we disabled TLS 1.1 and 1.2. Eventually, OpenSSL fixed
the bug behind #6033.
I've considered alternate implementations that do more testing to see
if there's secretly an OpenSSL 1.0.1c or something that secretly has a
backport of the OpenSSL 1.0.1e fix, and decided against it on the
grounds of complexity.
This isn't actually much of an issue, since only relays send
AUTHENTICATE cells, but while we're removing timestamps, we might as
well do this too.
Part of proposal 222. I didn't take the approach in the proposal of
using a time-based HMAC, since that was a bad-prng-mitigation hack
from SSL3, and in real life, if you don't have a good RNG, you're
hopeless as a Tor server.
For now, round down to the nearest 10 minutes. Later, eliminate entirely by
setting a consensus parameter.
(This rounding is safe because, in 0.2.2, where the timestamp mattered,
REND_REPLAY_TIME_INTERVAL was a nice generous 60 minutes.)
We were freeing these on exit, but when we added the dl_status_map
field to them in fddb814f, we forgot to arrange for it to be freed.
I've moved the cert_list_free() code into its own function, and added
an appropriate dsmap_free() call.
Fixes bug 9644; bugfix on 0.2.4.13-alpha.
The problem was that the server_identity_key_is_set() function could
return true under conditions where we don't really have an identity
key -- specifically, where we used to have one, but we stopped being a
server.
This is a fix for 6979; bugfix on 0.2.2.18-alpha where we added that
assertion to get_server_identity_key().
Fall back to SOMAXCONN if INT_MAX doesn't work.
We'd like to do this because the actual maximum is overrideable by the
kernel, and the value in the header file might not be right at all.
All implementations I can find out about claim that this is supported.
Fix for 9716; bugfix on every Tor.
This would make us do testing circuits "even when cbt is disabled by
consensus, or when we're a directory authority, or when we've failed
to write cbt history to our state file lately." (Roger's words.)
This is a fix for 9671 and an improvement in our fix for 5049.
The original misbehavior was in 0.2.2.14-alpha; the incomplete
fix was in 0.2.3.17-beta.
The spec requires them to do so, and not doing so creates a situation
where they can't send-test because relays won't extend to them because
of the other part of bug 9546.

Fixes bug 9546; bugfix on 0.2.3.6-alpha.
Relays previously, when initiating a connection, would only send a
NETINFO after sending an AUTHENTICATE. But bridges, when receiving a
connection, would never send AUTH_CHALLENGE. So relays wouldn't
AUTHENTICATE, and wouldn't NETINFO, and then bridges would be
surprised to be receiving CREATE cells on a non-open circuit.
Fixes bug 9546.
Fortunately, later checks mean that uninitialized data can't get sent
to the network by this bug. Unfortunately, reading uninitialized heap
*can* (in some cases, with some allocators) cause a crash if you get
unlucky and go off the end of a page.
Found by asn. Bugfix on 0.2.4.1-alpha.
When we moved channel_matches_target_addr_for_extend() into a separate
function, its sense was inverted from what one might expect, and we
didn't have a ! in one place where we should have.

This is not the most beautiful possible implementation (it requires
decorating mockable functions with ugly macros), but it actually
works, and is portable across multiple compilers and architectures.
If you pass the --enable-coverage flag on the command line, we build
our testing binaries with appropriate options eo enable coverage
testing. We also build a "tor-cov" binary that has coverage enabled,
for integration tests.
On recent OSX versions, test coverage only works with clang, not gcc.
So we warn about that.
Also add a contrib/coverage script to actually run gcov with the
appropriate options to generate useful .gcov files. (Thanks to
automake, the .o files will not have the names that gcov expects to
find.)
Also, remove generated gcda and gcno files on clean.
We previously used FILENAME_PRIVATE identifiers mostly for
identifiers exposed only to the unit tests... but also for
identifiers exposed to the benchmarker, and sometimes for
identifiers exposed to a similar module, and occasionally for no
really good reason at all.
Now, we use FILENAME_PRIVATE identifiers for identifiers shared by
Tor and the unit tests. They should be defined static when we
aren't building the unit test, and globally visible otherwise. (The
STATIC macro will keep us honest here.)
For identifiers used only by the unit tests and never by Tor at all,
on the other hand, we wrap them in #ifdef TOR_UNIT_TESTS.
This is not the motivating use case for the split test/non-test
build system; it's just a test example to see how it works, and to
take a chance to clean up the code a little.
This is mainly a matter of automake trickery: we build each static
library in two versions now: one with the TOR_UNIT_TESTS macro
defined, and one without. When TOR_UNIT_TESTS is defined, we can
enable mocking and expose more functions. When it's not defined, we
can lock the binary down more.
The alternatives would be to have alternate build modes: a "testing
configuration" for building the libraries with test support, and a
"production configuration" for building them without. I don't favor
that approach, since I think it would mean more people runnning
binaries build for testing, or more people not running unit tests.
Fix a bug in the voting algorithm that could yield incorrect results
when a non-naming authority declared too many flags. Fixes bug 9200;
bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha.

This implements "algorithm 1" from my discussion of bug #9072: on OOM,
find the circuits with the longest queues, and kill them. It's also a
fix for #9063 -- without the side-effects of bug #9072.
The memory bounds aren't perfect here, and you need to be sure to
allow some slack for the rest of Tor's usage.
This isn't a perfect fix; the rest of the solutions I describe on
codeable.
