Roger spotted this on tor-dev in his comments on proposal 221.
(Actually, detect DESTROY vs everything else, since arma likes
network timeout indicating failure but not overload indicating failure.)
This function is supposed to construct a list of all the ciphers in
the "v2 link protocol cipher list" that are supported by Tor's
openssl. It does this by invoking ssl23_get_cipher_by_char on each
two-byte ciphersuite ID to see which ones give a match. But when
ssl23_get_cipher_by_char cannot find a match for a two-byte SSL3/TLS
ciphersuite ID, it checks to see whether it has a match for a
three-byte SSL2 ciphersuite ID. This was causing a read off the end
of the 'cipherid' array.
This was probably harmless in practice, but we shouldn't be having
any uninitialized reads.
(Using ssl23_get_cipher_by_char in this way is a kludge, but then
again the entire existence of the v2 link protocol is kind of a
kludge. Once Tor 0.2.2 clients are all gone, we can drop this code
entirely.)
Found by starlight. Fix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. Fixes bug 12227.
Authorities now assign the Guard flag to the fastest 25% of the
network (it used to be the fastest 50%). Also raise the consensus
weight that guarantees the Guard flag from 250 to 2000. For the
current network, this results in about 1100 guards, down from 2500.
This step paves the way for moving the number of entry guards
down to 1 (proposal 236) while still providing reasonable expected
performance for most users.
Implements ticket 12690.
Found because LibreSSL has OPENSSL_NO_COMP always-on, but this
conflicts with the way that _we_ turn off compression. Patch from
dhill, who attributes it to "OpenBSD". Fixes bug 12602; bugfix on
0.2.1.1-alpha, which introduced this turn-compression-off code.
Currently tor fails to build its test when enabled with bufferevents
because an #ifndef USE_BUFFEREVENTS hides bucket_millis_empty() and
friends. This is fine if we don't run tests, but if we do, we need
these functions in src/or/libtor-testing.a when linking src/test/test.
This patch moves the functions outside the #ifndef and exposes them.
See downstream bug:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=510124
When building with bufferevents enabled, configure.ac throws an
error if "$ac_cv_header_event2_bufferevent_ssl_h" is not set to
"yes". However, nowhere was AC_CHECK_HEADERS(event2/bufferevent_ssl.h)
done. This commit adds the check.
When we run into bug 8387 (if we run into it again), report when we
last called circuit_expire_old_circuits_clientside(). This will let
us know -- if my fix for 8387 doesn't work -- whether my diagnosis
was at least correct.
Suggested by Andrea.
I don't know whether we missed these or misclassified them when we
first made the "DIRECTORY AUTHORITY SERVER OPTIONS" section, but they
really belong there.
The fix for bug 8746 added a hashtable instance that never actually
invoked HT_FIND. This caused a warning, since we didn't mark HT_FIND
as okay-not-to-use.
