Previously we said "Sandbox is not implemented on this platform" on
Linux boxes without libseccomp. Now we say that you need to build
Tor built with libseccomp. Fixes bug 11543; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha.
Fixes a possible root cause of 11553 by only making 64 attempts at
most to pick a circuitID. Previously, we would test every possible
circuit ID until we found one or ran out.
This algorithm succeeds probabilistically. As the comment says:
This potentially causes us to give up early if our circuit ID
space is nearly full. If we have N circuit IDs in use, then we
will reject a new circuit with probability (N / max_range) ^
MAX_CIRCID_ATTEMPTS. This means that in practice, a few percent
of our circuit ID capacity will go unused.
The alternative here, though, is to do a linear search over the
whole circuit ID space every time we extend a circuit, which is
not so great either.
This makes new vs old clients distinguishable, so we should try to
batch it with other patches that do that, like 11438.
The server cipher list is (thanks to #11513) chosen systematically to
put the best choices for Tor first. The client cipher list is chosen
to resemble a browser. So let's set SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE
to have the servers pick according to their own preference order.
This isn't on by default; to get it, you need to set "TransProxyType
ipfw". (The original patch had automatic detection for whether
/dev/pf is present and openable, but that seems marginally fragile.)
Back in 175b2678, we allowed servers to recognize clients who are
telling them the truth about their ciphersuites, and select the best
cipher from on that list. This implemented the server side of proposal
198.
In bugs 11492, 11498, and 11499, cypherpunks found a bunch of mistakes
and omissions and typos in the UNRESTRICTED_SERVER_CIPHER_LIST we had.
In #11513, I found a couple more.
Rather than try to hand-edit this list, I wrote a short python script
to generate our ciphersuite preferences from the openssl headers.
The new rules are:
* Require forward secrecy.
* Require RSA (since our servers only configure RSA keys)
* Require AES or 3DES. (This means, reject RC4, DES, SEED, CAMELLIA,
and NULL.)
* No export ciphersuites.
Then:
* Prefer AES to 3DES.
* If both suites have the same cipher, prefer ECDHE to DHE.
* If both suites have the same DHE group type, prefer GCM to CBC.
* If both suites have the same cipher mode, prefer SHA384 to SHA256
to SHA1.
* If both suites have the same digest, prefer AES256 to AES128.
This commit does nothing other than pull the changes/* files into
ChangeLog, sorted by declared type. I haven't comined any entries or
vetted anything yet.
When we successfully create a usable circuit after it previously
timed out for a certain amount of time, we should make sure that
our public IP address hasn't changed and update our descriptor.
The major changes are to re-order some ciphers, to drop the ECDH suites
(note: *not* ECDHE: ECDHE is still there), to kill off some made-up
stuff (like the SSL_RSA_FIPS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA suite), to drop
some of the DSS suites... *and* to enable the ECDHE+GCM ciphersuites.
This change is autogenerated by get_mozilla_ciphers.py from
Firefox 28 and OpenSSL 1.0.1g.
Resolves ticket 11438.
In C, it's a bad idea to do this:
char *cp = array;
char *end = array + array_len;
/* .... */
if (cp + 3 >= end) { /* out of bounds */ }
because cp+3 might be more than one off the end of the array, and
you are only allowed to construct pointers to the array elements,
and to an element one past the end. Instead you have to say
if (cp - array + 3 >= array_len) { /* ... */ }
or something like that.
This patch fixes two of these: one in process_versions_cell
introduced in 0.2.0.10-alpha, and one in process_certs_cell
introduced in 0.2.3.6-alpha. These are both tracked under bug
10363. "bobnomnom" found and reported both. See also 10313.
In our code, this is likely to be a problem as we used it only if we
get a nasty allocator that makes allocations end close to (void*)-1.
But it's best not to have to worry about such things at all, so
let's just fix all of these we can find.
According to reports, most programs degrade somewhat gracefully on
getting no answer for an MX or a CERT for www.example.com, but many
flip out completely on a NOTIMPL error.
Also, treat a QTYPE_ALL query as just asking for an A record.
The real fix here is to implement proposal 219 or something like it.
Fixes bug 10268; bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha.
Based on a patch from "epoch".
We are searching @CONFDIR@ before $HOME, but the documentation
implied otherwise.
I screwed this up in f5e86bcd6c, when I
first documented the $HOME/.torrc possibility.
Fix for bug 9213; bugfix on 0.2.3.18-rc.
Otherwise, it could mung the thing that came over the net on windows,
which would defeat the purpose of recording the unparseable thing.
Fixes bug 11342; bugfix on 0.2.2.1-alpha.
This is a fix for 9963. I say this is a feature, but if it's a
bugfix, it's a bugfix on 0.2.4.18-rc.

The build was broken by changes in f8c45339f7, but we didn't
notice, since that commit also made torify.1 only get built when
tor-fw-helper was turned on.
Fixes bug 11321; bugfix on Tor 0.2.5.1-alpha.
Most of these are simple. The only nontrivial part is that our
pattern for using ENUM_BF was confusing doxygen by making declarations
that didn't look like declarations.
In circuitlist_free_all, we free all the circuits, removing them from
the map as we go, but we weren't actually freeing the placeholder
entries that we use to indicate pending DESTROY cells.
Fix for bug 11278; bugfix on the 7912 code that was merged in
0.2.5.1-alpha
In the end this required a slightly nasty hack using a dummy anchor as
an option heading in order to make the "Other recognized __flags__"
line indent properly.
Fixes bug 11061; Bugfix on 61d740ed.
The crypto_early_init() function could only be called at most twice,
and both of those were during startup. AFAICT leaking the first set
of locks was the only non-idempotent thing.
There are still quite a few 0.2.3.2x relays running for x<5, and while I
agree they should upgrade, I don't think cutting them out of the network
is a net win on either side.
This change prevents LD_BUG warnings and bootstrap failure messages
when we try to do directory fetches when starting with
DisableNetwork == 1, a consensus present, but no descriptors (or
insufficient descriptors) yet.
Fixes bug 11200 and bug 10405. It's a bugfix on 0.2.3.9-alpha.
Thanks to mcs for walking me through the repro instructions!
This is meant to be a better bug 9229 fix -- or at least, one more
in tune with the intent of the original code, which calls
router_retry_directory_downloads() only on the first bridge descriptor.
This prevents long stalls when we're starting with a state file but
with no bridge descriptors. Fixes bug 9229. I believe this bug has
been present since 0.2.0.3-alpha.
By default, after you've made a connection to port XYZ, we assume
you might still want to have an exit ready to connect to XYZ for one
hour. This patch lets you lower that interval.
Implements ticket 91
We have ignored any ports listed here since 80365b989 (0.0.7rc1),
but we didn't warn the user that we were ignoring them. This patch
adds a warning if you put explicit ports in any of the options
{Socks,Dir}Policy or AuthDir{Reject,Invalid,BadDir,BadExit}. It
also adjusts the manpage to say that ports are ignored.
Fixes ticket 11108.

"""
Fall back to registered country if necessary.
When extracting geoip and geoip6 files from MaxMind's GeoLite2 Country
database, we only look at country->iso_code which is the two-character ISO
3166-1 country code of the country where MaxMind believes the end user is
located.
But if MaxMind thinks a range belongs to anonymous proxies, they don't put
anything there. Hence, we omit those ranges and resolve them all to '??'.
That's not what we want.
What we should do is first try country->iso_code, and if there's no such
key, try registered_country->iso_code which is the country in which the
ISP has registered the IP address.
In short: let's fill all A1 entries with what ARIN et. al think.

It's possible for two threads to hit assertion failures at the same

This should make more platforms (in particular, ones with compilers
where -fomit-frame-pointer is on by default but table generation
isn't) support backtrace generation. Thanks to cypherpunks for this
one.

Back in 5e762e6a5c, non-exit servers
stopped launching DNS requests for users. So there's no need for them
to see if their DNS answers are hijacked.
Patch from Matt Pagan. I think this is a 965 fix.
For a client using a SocksPort connection and IPv6, the connect reply
from tor daemon did not handle AF_INET6 thus sending back the wrong
payload to the client.
A changes file is provided and this fixes#10987
Signed-off-by: David Goulet <dgoulet@ev0ke.net>
On busy servers, this function takes up something like 3-7% in
different profiles, and gets invoked every time we need to participate
as the midpoint in a hidden service.
So maybe walking through a linked list of all the circuits here wasn't
a good idea.
We log only one message, containing a complete list of what's
wrong. We log the complete list whenever any of the possible things
that could have gotten wrong gets worse.
Fix for #9870. Bugfix on 10480dff01, which we merged in
0.2.5.1-alpha.
If you had a resolv.conf file with a nameserver line containing no
nameserver IP, we would crash. That's not terrible, but it's not
desirable.
Fixes bug 8788; bugfix on 0.1.1.23. Libevent already has this fix.
These options were added back in 0.1.2.5-alpha, but no longer make any
sense now that all directories support tunneled connections and
BEGIN_DIR cells. These options were on by default; now they are
always-on.
This is a fix for 10849, where TunnelDirConns 0 would break hidden
services -- and that bug arrived, I think, in 0.2.0.10-alpha.
This is a bugfix on 0.2.2.26-beta, because 6b83b3b made directory
authorities remove themselves from the list of directory authorities to
upload to, but didn't suppress the warning in case they're the only
directory authority in the network.
(There is no longer meaningfully any such thing as a HS authority,
since we stopped uploading or downloading v0 hs descriptors in
0.2.2.1-alpha.)
Implements #10881, and part of #10841.
Apparently fedora currently has ECDH but not P224. This isn't a huge
deal, since we no longer use OpenSSL's P224 ever (see #9780 and
72c1e5acfe). But we shouldn't have segfaulting benchmarks really.
Fixes bug 10835; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.
This time, we use a pthread_attr to make sure that if pthread_create
succeeds, the thread is successfully detached.
This probably isn't the big thing going on with 4345, since it'd be
a bit weird for pthread_detach to be failing. But it's worth
getting it right.
Right now this accounts for about 1% of circuits over all, but if you
pick a guard that's running 0.2.3, it will be about 6% of the circuits
running through that guard.
Making sure that every circuit has at least one ntor link means that
we're getting plausibly good forward secrecy on every circuit.
This implements ticket 9777,
It's possible to set your ExitNodes to contains only exits that don't
have the Exit flag. If you do that, we'll decide that 0 of your exits
are working. Instead, in that case we should look at nodes which have
(or which might have) exit policies that don't reject everything.
Fix for bug 10543; bugfix on 0.2.4.10-alpha.
If you want a slow shutdown, send SIGNAL SHUTDOWN.
(Why not just have the default be SIGNAL QUIT? Because this case
should only happen when an owning controller has crashed, and a
crashed controller won't be able to give the user any "tor is
shutting down" feedback, and so the user gets confused for a while.
See bug 10449 for more info)
The remaining vestige is that we continue to publish the V2dir flag,
and that, for the controller, we continue to emit v2 directory
formats when requested.
Previously, we would sometimes decide in directory_get_from_hs_dir()
to connect to an excluded node, and then later in
directory_initiate_command_routerstatus_rend() notice that it was
excluded and strictnodes was set, and catch it as a stopgap.
Additionally, this patch preferentially tries to fetch from
non-excluded nodes even when StrictNodes is off.
Fix for bug #10722. Bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha (the v2 hidserv directory

If we don't, we can wind up with a wedged cpuworker, and write to it
for ages and ages.
Found by skruffy. This was a bug in 2dda97e8fd, a.k.a. svn
revision 402. It's been there since we have been using cpuworkers.
When I introduced the unusable_for_new_circuits flag in
62fb209d83, I had a spurious ! in the
circuit_stream_is_being_handled loop. This made us decide that
non-unusable circuits (that is, usable ones) were the ones to avoid,
and caused it to launch a bunch of extra circuits.
Fixes bug 10456; bugfix on 0.2.4.12-alpha.
When we wrote the directory request statistics code in August 2009, we
thought that these statistics were only relevant for bridges, and that
bridges should not report them. That's why we added a switch to discard
relevant observations made by bridges. This code was first released in
0.2.2.1-alpha.
In May 2012 we learned that we didn't fully disable directory request
statistics on bridges. Bridges did report directory request statistics,
but these statistics contained empty dirreq-v3-ips and dirreq-v3-reqs
lines. But the remaining dirreq-* lines have always been non-empty. (We
didn't notice for almost three years, because directory-request statistics
were disabled by default until 0.2.3.1-alpha, and all statistics have been
removed from bridge descriptors before publishing them on the metrics
website.)
Proposal 201, created in May 2012, suggests to add a new line called
bridge-v3-reqs that is similar to dirreq-v3-reqs, but that is published
only by bridges. This proposal is still open as of December 2013.
Since October 2012 we're using dirreq-v3-resp (not -reqs) lines in
combination with bridge-ips lines to estimate bridge user numbers; see
task 8462. This estimation method has superseded the older approach that
was only based on bridge-ips lines in November 2013. Using dirreq-v3-resp
and bridge-ips lines is a workaround. The cleaner approach would be to
use dirreq-v3-reqs instead.
This commit makes bridges report the same directory request statistics as
relays, including dirreq-v3-ips and dirreq-v3-reqs lines. It makes
proposal 201 obsolete.
In 0.2.3.8-alpha we attempted to "completely disable stats if we aren't
running as a relay", but instead disabled them only if we aren't running
as a server.
This commit leaves DirReqStatistics enabled on both relays and bridges,
and disables (Cell,Entry,ExitPort)Statistics on bridges.
This fixes bug 10402, where the rdrand engine would use the rdrand
instruction, not as an additional entropy source, but as a replacement
for the entire userspace PRNG. That's obviously stupid: even if you
don't think that RDRAND is a likely security risk, the right response
to an alleged new alleged entropy source is never to throw away all
previously used entropy sources.
Thanks to coderman and rl1987 for diagnosing and tracking this down.
The 'body' field of a microdesc_t holds a strdup()'d value if the
microdesc's saved_location field is SAVED_IN_JOURNAL or
SAVED_NOWHERE, and holds a pointer to the middle of an mmap if the
microdesc is SAVED_IN_CACHE. But we weren't setting that field
until a while after we parsed the microdescriptor, which left an
interval where microdesc_free() would try to free() the middle of
the mmap().
This patch also includes a regression test.
This is a fix for #10409; bugfix on 0.2.2.6-alpha.
The old behavior was that NULL matched only bridges without known
identities; the correct behavior is that NULL should match all
bridges (assuming that their addr:port matches).
We were checking whether a 8-bit length field had overflowed a
503-byte buffer. Unless somebody has found a way to store "504" in a
single byte, it seems unlikely.
Fix for 10313 and 9980. Based on a pach by Jared L Wong. First found

This flag prevents the creation of a console window popup on Windows. We
need it for pluggable transport executables--otherwise you get blank
console windows when you launch the 3.x browser bundle with transports
enabled.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms684863.aspx#CREATE_NO_WINDOW
The browser bundles that used Vidalia used to set this flag when
launching tor itself; it was apparently inherited by the pluggable
transports launched by tor. In the 3.x bundles, tor is launched by some
JavaScript code, which doesn't have the ability to set CREATE_NO_WINDOW.
tor itself is now being compiled with the -mwindows option, so that it
is a GUI application, not a console application, and doesn't show a
console window in any case. This workaround doesn't work for pluggable
transports, because they need to be able to write control messages to
stdout.
