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.
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().
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.
(Backport to Tor 0.2.3)
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.
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.
There's an assertion failure that can occur if a connection has
optimistic data waiting, and then the connect() call returns 0 on the
first attempt (rather than -1 and EINPROGRESS). That latter behavior
from connect() appears to be an (Open?)BSDism when dealing with remote
addresses in some cases. (At least, I've only seen it reported with
the BSDs under libevent, even when the address was 127.0.0.1. And
we've only seen this problem in Tor with OpenBSD.)
Fixes bug 9017; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha, which first introduced
optimistic data. (Although you could also argue that the commented-out
connection_start_writing in 155c9b80 back in 2002 is the real source
of the issue.)
This is a fix for bug 8844, where eugenis correctly notes that there's
a sentinel value at the end of the list-of-freelists that's never
actually checked. It's a bug since the first version of the chunked
buffer code back in 0.2.0.16-alpha.
This would probably be a crash bug if it ever happens, but nobody's
ever reported something like this, so I'm unsure whether it can occur.
It would require write_to_buf, write_to_buf_zlib, read_to_buf, or
read_to_buf_tls to get an input size of more than 32K. Still, it's a
good idea to fix this kind of thing!
Otherwise, it's possible to create streams or circuits with these
bogus IDs, leading to orphaned circuits or streams, or to ones that
can cause bandwidth DOS problems.
Fixes bug 7889; bugfix on all released Tors.
Apparently some compilers like to eliminate memset() operations on
data that's about to go out-of-scope. I've gone with the safest
possible replacement, which might be a bit slow. I don't think this
is critical path in any way that will affect performance, but if it
is, we can work on that in 0.2.4.
Fixes bug 7352.
If we completed the handshake for the v2 link protocol but wound up
negotiating the wong protocol version, we'd become so confused about
what part of the handshake we were in that we'd promptly die with an
assertion.
This is a fix for CVE-2012-2250; it's a bugfix on 0.2.3.6-alpha.
All servers running that version or later should really upgrade.
Bug and fix from "some guy from France." I tweaked his code slightly
to make it log the IP of the offending node.
Clients now consider the ClientRejectInternalAddresses config option
when using a microdescriptor consensus stanza to decide whether
an exit relay would allow exiting to an internal address. Fixes
bug 7190; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
Our implementation of parse_short_policy was screwed up: it would
ignore the last character of every short policy. Obviously, that's
broken.
This patch fixes the busted behavior, and adds a bunch of unit tests
to make sure the rest of that function is okay.
Fixes bug 7192; fix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
Failure to do so left us open to a remotely triggerable assertion
failure. Fixes CVE-2012-2249; bugfix on 0.2.3.6-alpha. Reported by
"some guy from France".
Allow one-hop directory fetching circuits the full "circuit build timeout"
period, rather than just half of it, before failing them and marking
the relay down. This fix should help reduce cases where clients declare
relays (or worse, bridges) unreachable because the TLS handshake takes
a few seconds to complete.
Fixes bug 6743 (one piece of bug 3443); bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha, where
we changed the timeout from a static 30 seconds.
We've had over two months to fix them, and didn't. Now we need
0.2.3.x stable. Yes, it would be cool to get this working in
0.2.3.x, but not at the expense of delaying every other feature that
_does_ work in 0.2.3.x. We can do a real fix in 0.2.4.
