Fortunately, later checks mean that uninitialized data can't get sent
to the network by this bug. Unfortunately, reading uninitialized heap
*can* (in some cases, with some allocators) cause a crash if you get
unlucky and go off the end of a page.
Found by asn. Bugfix on 0.2.4.1-alpha.
When we moved channel_matches_target_addr_for_extend() into a separate
function, its sense was inverted from what one might expect, and we
didn't have a ! in one place where we should have.

Fix a bug in the voting algorithm that could yield incorrect results
when a non-naming authority declared too many flags. Fixes bug 9200;
bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha.

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.
doc/TODO and doc/spec/README were placeholders to tell people where to
look for the real TODO and README stuff -- we replaced them years ago,
though.
authority-policy, v3-authority-howto, and torel-design.txt belong in
torspec. I'm putting them in attic there since I think they may be in
large part obsolete, but someone can rescue them if they're not.
translations.txt is outdated, and refers to lots of programs other
than Tor. We have much better translation resources on the website
now.
tor-win32-mingw-creation.txt is pending review of a revised version
for 0.2.5 (see ticket #4520), but there's no reason to ship this one
while we're waiting for an accurate version.
the tor-rpm-creation.txt isn't obsolete AFAIK, but it belongs in
doc/contrib if anywhere.
Resolves bug #8965.
This is a reprise of the fix in bdff7e3299d78; 6905c1f6 reintroduced
that bug. Briefly: windows doesn't seem to like deleting a mapped
file. I tried adding the PROT_SHARED_DELETE flag to the createfile
all, but that didn't actually fix this issue. Fortunately, the unit
test I added in 4f4fc63fea should
prevent us from making this particular screw-up again.
This patch also tries to limit the crash potential of a failure to
write by a little bit, although it could do a better job of retaining
microdescriptor bodies.
Fix for bug 8822, bugfix on 0.2.4.12-alpha.
This reverts commit 884a0e269c.
I'm reverting this because it doesn't actually make the problem go
away. It appears that instead we need to do unmap-then-replace.
A comment by rransom on #8795 taken together with a comment by doorss
recorded on #2077 suggest that *every* attempt to replace the md cache
will fail on Vista/Win7 if we don't have the FILE_SHARE_DELETE flag
passed to CreateFile, and if we try to replace the file ourselves
before unmapping it. I'm adding the FILE_SHARE_DELETE, since that's
this simplest fix. Broken indexers (the favored #2077 hypothesis)
could still cause trouble here, but at least this patch should make us
stop stepping on our own feet.
Likely fix for #2077 and its numerous duplicates. Bugfix on
0.2.2.6-alpha, which first had a microdescriptor cache that would get
replaced before remapping it.
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!
It appears that moria1 crashed because of one instance of this (the
one in router_counts_toward_thresholds). The other instance I fixed
won't actually have broken anything, but I think it's more clear this
way.
Fixes bug 8833; bugfix on 0.2.4.12-alpha.
I believe this was introduced in 6bc071f765, which makes
this a fix on 0.2.0.10-alpha. But my code archeology has not extended
to actually testing that theory.
It seems that some versions of clang that would prefer the
-Wswitch-enum compiler flag to warn about switch statements with
missing enum values, even if those switch statements have a
default.
Fixes bug 8598; bugfix on 0.2.4.10-alpha.
It was previously --Test in the help output and --test-commandline in
the getopt call. The man page already had --test.
(Originally by David, who resolved the tie in favor of "--test"; I
chose --test-commandline" instead so that nothing that depended
on it could break. -Nick)
If we get a write error on a SOCKS connection, we can't send a
SOCKS reply, now can we?
This bug has been here since 36baf7219, where we added the "hey, I'm
closing an AP connection but I haven't finished the socks
handshake!" message. It's bug 8427.
Also, don't call the exit node 'reject *' unless our decision to pick
that node was based on a non-summarized version of that node's exit
policy.
rransom and arma came up with the ideas for this fix.
Fix for 7582; the summary-related part is a bugfix on 0.2.3.2-alpha.
When we're hibernating, the main reqason we can't bootstrap will
always be that we're hibernating: reporting anything else at severity
WARN is pointless.
Fixes part of 7302.
Inspired by #8042.
As far as I know, OpenVMS is the only place you're likely to hit an
unsigned time_t these days, and Tor's VMS support
is... lacking. Still worth letting people know about it, though.
This should have been 2 bytes all along, since version numbers can
be 16 bits long. This isn't a live bug, since the call to
is_or_protocol_version_known in channel_tls_process_versions_cell
will reject any version number not in the range 1..4. Still, let's
fix this before we accidentally start supporting version 256.
Reported pseudonymously. Fixes bug 8062; bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha --
specifically, on commit 6fcda529, where during development I
increased the width of a version to 16 bits without changing the
type of link_proto.
Our ++ should have been += 2. This means that we'd accept version
numbers even when they started at an odd position.
This bug should be harmless in practice for so long as every version
number we allow begins with a 0 byte, but if we ever have a version
number starting with 1, 2, 3, or 4, there will be trouble here.
Fix for bug 8059, reported pseudonymously. Bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha
-- specifically, commit 6fcda529, where during development I
increased the width of a version to 16 bits without changing the
loop step.
I have no idea whether b0rken clients will DoS the network if the v2
authorities all turn this on or not. It's experimental. See #6783 for
a description of how to test it more or less safely, and please be
careful!
