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.
The implementation we added has a tendency to crash with lists of 0 or
one element. That can happen if we get a consensus vote, v2
consensus, consensus, or geoip file with 0 or 1 element. There's a
DOS opportunity there that authorities could exploit against one
another, and which an evil v2 authority could exploit against anything
downloading v2 directory information..
This fix is minimalistic: It just adds a special-case for 0- and
1-element lists. For 0.2.4 (the current alpha series) we'll want a
better patch.
This is bug 7191; it's a fix on 0.2.0.10-alpha.
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.
