In previous versions of Tor, ExitPolicy accept6/reject6 * produced
policy entries for IPv4 and IPv6 wildcard addresses.
To reduce operator confusion, change accept6/reject6 * to only produce
an IPv6 wildcard address.
Resolves bug #16069.
Patch on 2eb7eafc9d and a96c0affcb (25 Oct 2012),
released in 0.2.4.7-alpha.
When parsing torrc ExitPolicies, we now warn if:
* an IPv4 address is used on an accept6 or reject6 line. The line is
ignored, but the rest of the policy items in the list are used.
(accept/reject continue to allow both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in torrcs.)
* a "private" address alias is used on an accept6 or reject6 line.
The line filters both IPv4 and IPv6 private addresses, disregarding
the 6 in accept6/reject6.
When parsing torrc ExitPolicies, we now issue an info-level message:
* when expanding an accept/reject * line to include both IPv4 and IPv6
wildcard addresses.
In each instance, usage advice is provided to avoid the message.
Partial fix for ticket 16069. Patch by "teor".

When I fixed#11243, I made it so we would take the digest of a
descriptor before tokenizing it, so we could desist from download
attempts if parsing failed. But when I did that, I didn't remove an
assertion that the descriptor began with "onion-key". Usually, this
was enforced by "find_start_of_next_microdescriptor", but when
find_start_of_next_microdescriptor returned NULL, the assertion was
triggered.
Fixes bug 16400. Thanks to torkeln for reporting and
cypherpunks_backup for diagnosing and writing the first fix here.
* Include ed25519 identities in votes
* Include "no ed25519 identity" in votes
* Include some commented-out code about identity voting. (This
will disappear.)
* Include some functions for identity voting (These will disappear.)
* Enforce uniqueness in ed25519 keys within a vote
Extrainfo documents are now ed-signed just as are router
descriptors, according to proposal 220. This patch also includes
some more tests for successful/failing parsing, and fixes a crash
bug in ed25519 descriptor parsing.
When there are annotations on a router descriptor, the
ed25519-identity element won't be at position 0 or 1; it will be at
router+1 or router-1.
This patch also adds a missing smartlist function to search a list for
an item with a particular pointer.
Routers now use TAP and ntor onion keys to sign their identity keys,
and put these signatures in their descriptors. That allows other
parties to be confident that the onion keys are indeed controlled by
the router that generated the descriptor.
The "longest possible policy" comment in
router_parse_addr_policy_item_from_string() used an example policy
that was actually shorter than the maximum length.
This comment was amended, and expanded to count the maximum number of
characters.
Comment change only.
Have clients and authorities both have new behavior, since the
fix for bug 11243 has gone in. But make clients still accept
accept old bogus HSDir descriptors, to avoid fingerprinting trickery.
Fixes bug 9286.
Decrease minimum consensus interval to 10 seconds
when TestingTorNetwork is set. (Or 5 seconds for
the first consensus.)
Fix code that assumes larger interval values.
This assists in quickly bootstrapping a testing
Tor network.
Fixes bugs 13718 & 13823.
One pain point in evolving the Tor design and implementing has been
adding code that makes clients reject directory documents that they
previously would have accepted, if those descriptors actually exist.
When this happened, the clients would get the document, reject it,
and then decide to try downloading it again, ad infinitum. This
problem becomes particularly obnoxious with authorities, since if
some authorities accept a descriptor that others don't, the ones
that don't accept it would go crazy trying to re-fetch it over and
over. (See for example ticket #9286.)
This patch tries to solve this problem by tracking, if a descriptor
isn't parseable, what its digest was, and whether it is invalid
because of some flaw that applies to the portion containing the
digest. (This excludes RSA signature problems: RSA signatures
aren't included in the digest. This means that a directory
authority can still put another directory authority into a loop by
mentioning a descriptor, and then serving that descriptor with an
invalid RSA signatures. But that would also make the misbehaving
directory authority get DoSed by the server it's attacking, so it's
not much of an issue.)
We already have a mechanism to mark something undownloadable with
downloadstatus_mark_impossible(); we use that here for
microdescriptors, extrainfos, and router descriptors.
Unit tests to follow in another patch.
Closes ticket #11243.
Clients are now willing to send optimistic circuit data (before they
receive a 'connected' cell) to relays of any version. We used to
only do it for relays running 0.2.3.1-alpha or later, but now all
relays are new enough.
Resolves ticket 13153.
Most of these are in somewhat non-obvious code where it is probably
a good idea to initialize variables and add extra assertions anyway.
Closes 13036. Patches from "teor".
