We would never actually enforce multiplicity rules when parsing
annotations, since the counts array never got entries added to it for
annotations in the token list that got added by earlier calls to
tokenize_string.

We had a spelling discrepancy between the manpage and the source code
for some option. Resolve these in favor of the manpage, because it
makes more sense (for example, HTTP should be capitalized).
The code that makes use of the RunTesting option is #if 0, so setting
this option has no effect. Mark the option as obsolete for now, so that
Tor doesn't list it as an available option erroneously.
In the case where old_router == NULL but sdmap has an entry for the
router, we can currently safely infer that the old_router was not a
bridge. Add an assert to ensure that this remains true, and fix the
logic not to die with the tor_assert(old_router) call.
In a2bb0bf we started using a separate client identity key. When we are
in "public server mode" (that means not a bridge) we will use the same
key. Reusing the key without doing the proper refcounting leads to a
segfault on cleanup during shutdown. Fix that.
Also introduce an assert that triggers if our refcount falls below 0.
That should never happen.
We now require that:
- Only actual servers should ever call get_server_identity_key
- If you're being a client or bridge, the client and server keys should
differ.
- If you're being a public relay, the client and server keys
should be the same.
When intro->extend_info is created for an introduction point, it
only starts out with a nickname, not necessarily an identity digest.
Thus, doing router_get_by_digest isn't necessarily safe.
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/1859
Use router_get_by_digest() instead of router_get_by_hexdigest()
in circuit_discard_optional_exit_enclaves() and
rend_client_get_random_intro(), per Nick's comments.
Using router_get_by_digest() in rend_client_get_random_intro() will
break hidden services published by Tor versions pre 0.1.2.18 and
0.2.07-alpha as they only publish by nickname. This is acceptable
however as these versions only publish to authority tor26 and
don't work for versions in the 0.2.2.x series anyway.
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/1859
There are two problems in this bug:
1. When an OP makes a .exit request specifying itself as the exit, and the exit
is not yet listed, Tor gets all the routerinfos needed for the circuit but
discovers in circuit_is_acceptable() that its own routerinfo is not in the
routerdigest list and cannot be used. Tor then gets locked in a cycle of
repeating these two steps. When gathering the routerinfos for a circuit,
specifically when the exit has been chosen by .exit notation, Tor needs to
apply the same rules it uses later on when deciding if it can build a
circuit with those routerinfos.
2. A different bug arises in the above situation when the Tor instance's
routerinfo *is* listed in the routerlist, it shares its nickname with a
number of other Tor nodes, and it does not have 'Named' rights to its
nickname.
So for example, if (i) there are five nodes named Bob in the network, (ii) I
am running one of them but am flagged as 'Unnamed' because someone else
claimed the 'Bob' nickname first, and (iii) I run my Tor as both client
and exit the following can happen to me:
- I go to www.evil.com
- I click on a link www.evil.com.bob.exit
- My request will exit through my own Tor node rather than the 'Named'
node Bob or any of the others.
- www.evil.com now knows I am actually browsing from the same computer
that is running my 'Bob' node
So to solve both issues we need to ensure:
- When fulfilling a .exit request we only choose a routerinfo if it exists in
the routerlist, even when that routerinfo is ours.
- When getting a router by nickname we only return our own router information
if it is not going to be used for building a circuit.
We ensure this by removing the special treatment afforded our own router in
router_get_by_nickname(). This means the function will only return the
routerinfo of our own router if it is in the routerlist built from authority
info and has a unique nickname or is bound to a non-unique nickname.
There are some uses of router_get_by_nickname() where we are looking for the
router by name because of a configuration directive, specifically local
declaration of NodeFamilies and EntryNodes and other routers' declaration of
MyFamily. In these cases it is not at first clear if we need to continue
returning our own routerinfo even if our router is not listed and/or has a
non-unique nickname with the Unnamed flag.
The patch treats each of these cases as follows:
Other Routers' Declaration of MyFamily
This happens in routerlist_add_family(). If another router declares our router
in its family and our router has the Unnamed flag or is not in the routerlist
yet, should we take advantage of the fact that we know our own routerinfo to
add us in anyway? This patch says 'no, treat our own router just like any
other'. This is a safe choice because it ensures our client has the same view
of the network as other clients. We also have no good way of knowing if our
router is Named or not independently of the authorities, so we have to rely on
them in this.
Local declaration of NodeFamilies
Again, we have no way of knowing if the declaration 'NodeFamilies
Bob,Alice,Ringo' refers to our router Bob or the Named router Bob, so we have
to defer to the authorities and treat our own router like any other.
Local declaration of NodeFamilies
Again, same as above. There's also no good reason we would want our client to
choose it's own router as an entry guard if it does not meet the requirements
expected of any other router on the network.
In order to reduce the possibility of error, the patch also replaces two
instances where we were using router_get_by_nickname() with calls to
router_get_by_hexdigest() where the identity digest of the router
is available.
* Make tor_tls_context_new internal to tortls.c, and return the new
tor_tls_context_t from it.
* Add a public tor_tls_context_init wrapper function to replace it.
When picking bridges (or other nodes without a consensus entry (and
thus no bandwidth weights)) we shouldn't just trust the node's
descriptor. So far we believed anything between 0 and 10MB/s, where 0
would mean that a node doesn't get any use from use unless it is our
only one, and 10MB/s would be a quite siginficant weight. To make this
situation better, we now believe weights in the range from 20kB/s to
100kB/s. This should allow new bridges to get use more quickly, and
means that it will be harder for bridges to see almost all our traffic.
In the first 100 circuits, our timeout_ms and close_ms
are the same. So we shouldn't transition circuits to purpose
CIRCUIT_PURPOSE_C_MEASURE_TIMEOUT, since they will just timeout again
next time we check.
We really should ignore any timeouts that have *no* network activity for their
entire measured lifetime, now that we have the 95th percentile measurement
changes. Usually this is up to a minute, even on fast connections.
If we really want all this complexity for these stages here, we need to handle
it better for people with large timeouts. It should probably go away, though.
Rechecking the timeout condition was foolish, because it is checked on the
same codepath. It was also wrong, because we didn't round.
Also, the liveness check itself should be <, and not <=, because we only have
1 second resolution.
Specifically, a circ attempt that we'd launched while the network was
down could timeout after we've marked our entrynodes up, marking them
back down again. The fix is to annotate as bad the OR conns that were
around before we did the retry, so if a circuit that's attached to them
times out we don't do anything about it.
Roger correctly pointed out that my code was broken for accounting
periods that shifted forwards, since
start_of_accounting_period_containing(interval_start_time) would not
be equal to interval_start_time, but potentially much earlier.
The RefuseUnknownExits config option is now a tristate, with "1"
meaning "enable it no matter what the consensus says", "0" meaning
"disable it no matter what the consensus says", and "auto" meaning "do
what the consensus says". If the consensus is silent, we enable
RefuseUnknownExits.
This patch also changes the dirserv logic so that refuseunknownexits
won't make us cache unless we're an exit.
Do not double-report signatures from unrecognized authorities both as
"from unknown authority" and "not present". Fixes bug 1956, bugfix on
0.2.2.16-alpha.
Our attempt to make compilation work on old versions of Windows
again while keeping wince compatibility broke the build for Win2k+.
helix reports this patch fixes the issue for WinXP. Bugfix on
0.2.2.15-alpha; related to bug 1797.
When the CellStatistics option is off, we don't store cell insertion
times. Doing so would also not be very smart, because there seem to
still be some performance issues with this type of statistics. Nothing
harmful happens when we don't have insertion times, so we don't need to
alarm the user.
Previously[*], the function would start with the first stream on the
circuit, and let it package as many cells as it wanted before
proceeding to the next stream in turn. If a circuit had many live
streams that all wanted to package data, the oldest would get
preference, and the newest would get ignored.
Now, we figure out how many cells we're willing to send per stream,
and try to allocate them fairly.
Roger diagnosed this in the comments for bug 1298.
[*] This bug has existed since before the first-ever public release
of Tor. It was added by r152 of Tor on 26 Jan 2003, which was
the first commit to implement streams (then called "topics").
This is not the oldest bug to be fixed in 0.2.2.x: that honor
goes to the windowing bug in r54, which got fixed in e50b7768 by
Roger with diagnosis by Karsten. This is, however, the most
long-lived bug to be fixed in 0.2.2.x: the r54 bug was fixed
2580 days after it was introduced, whereas I am writing this
commit message 2787 days after r152.
I'm going to use this to implement more fairness in
circuit_resume_edge_reading_helper in an attempt to fix bug 1298.
(Updated with fixes from arma and Sebastian)
An authority should never download a consensus if it has a live one,
but when it doesn't, it should admit that it's not going to get one,
and see if anybody else can give it one.
Fixes 1300, fix on 0.2.0.9-alpha
Bridges and other relays not included in the consensus don't
necessarily have a non-zero bandwidth capacity. If all our
configured bridges had a zero bw capacity we would warn the
user. Change that.
Previously, we were also considering the time spent in
soft-hibernation. If this was a long time, we would wind up
underestimating our bandwidth by a lot, and skewing our wakeup time
towards the start of the accounting interval.
This patch also makes us store a few more fields in the state file,
including the time at which we entered soft hibernation.
Fixes bug 1789. Bugfix on 0.0.9pre5.
This will make changes for DST still work, and avoid double-spending
bytes when there are slight changes to configurations.
Fixes bug 1511; the DST issue is a bugfix on 0.0.9pre5.
When we introduced the code to close non-open OR connections after
KeepalivePeriod had passed, we replaced some code that said
if (!connection_is_open(conn)) {
/* let it keep handshaking forever */
} else if (do other tests here) {
...
with new code that said
if (!connection_is_open(conn) && past_keepalive) {
/* let it keep handshaking forever */
} else if (do other tests here) {
...
This was a mistake, since it made all the other tests start applying
to non-open connections, thus causing bug 1840, where non-open
connections get closed way early.
Fixes bug 1840. Bugfix on 0.2.1.26 (commit 67b38d50).
- Move checks for extra_info to callers
- Change argument name from failed to descs
- Use strlen("fp/") instead of a magic number
- I passed on the suggestion to rename functions from *_failed() to
*_handle_failure(). There are a lot of these so for now just follow
the house style.
It's normal when bootstrapping to have a lot of different certs
missing, so we don't want missing certs to make us warn... unless
the certs we're missing are ones that we've tried to fetch a couple
of times and failed at.
May fix bug 1145.
We frequently add cells to stream-blocked queues for valid reasons
that don't mean we need to block streams. The most obvious reason
is if the cell arrives over a circuit rather than from an edge: we
don't block circuits, no matter how full queues get. The next most
obvious reason is that we allow CONNECTED cells from a newly created
stream to get delivered just fine.
This patch changes the behavior so that we only iterate over the
streams on a circuit when the cell in question came from a stream,
and we only block the stream that generated the cell, so that other
streams can still get their CONNECTEDs in.
This should keep WinCE working (unicode always-on) and get Win98
working again (unicode never-on).
There are two places where we explicitly use ASCII-only APIs, still:
in ntmain.c and in the unit tests.
This patch also fixes a bug in windoes tor_listdir that would cause
the first file to be listed an arbitrary number of times that was
also introduced with WinCE support.
Should fix bug 1797.
Setting CookieAuthFileGroupReadable but without setting CookieAuthFile makes
no sense, because unix directory permissions for the data directory prevent
the group from accessing the file anyways.
When this happens, run through the streams on the circuit and make
sure they're all blocked. If some aren't, that's a bug: block them
all and log it! If they all are, where did the cell come from? Log
it!
(I suspect that this actually happens pretty frequently, so I'm making
these log messages appear at INFO.)
Do not start reading on exit streams when we get a SENDME unless we
have space in the appropriate circuit's cell queue.
Draft fix for bug 1653.
(commit message by nickm)
router_add_to_routerlist() is supposed to be a nice minimal function
that only touches the routerlist structures, but it included a call to
dirserv_single_reachability_test().
We have a function that gets called _after_ adding descriptors
successfully: routerlist_descriptors_added. This patch moves the
responsibility for testing there.
Because the decision of whether to test or not depends on whether
there was an old routerinfo for this router or not, we have to first
detect whether we _will_ want to run the tests if the router is added.
We make this the job of
routers_update_status_from_consensus_networkstatus().
Finally, this patch makes the code notice if a router is going from
hibernating to non-hibernating, and if so causes a reachability test
to get launched.
This solves the problem Roger noted as:
What if the router has a clock that's 5 minutes off, so it
publishes a descriptor for 5 minutes in the future, and we test it
three minutes in. In this edge case, we will continue to advertise
it as Running for the full 45 minute period.
If the voting interval was short enough, the two-minutes delay
of CONSENSUS_MIN_SECONDS_BEFORE_CACHING would confuse bridges
to the point where they would assert before downloading a consensus.
It it was even shorter (<4 minutes, I think), caches would
assert too. This patch fixes that by having replacing the
two-minutes value with MIN(2 minutes, interval/16).
Bugfix for 1141; the cache bug could occur since 0.2.0.8-alpha, so
I'm calling this a bugfix on that. Robert Hogan diagnosed this.
Done as a patch against maint-0.2.1, since it makes it hard to
run some kinds of testing networks.
