tor: updated to 0.3.5.7
Changes in version 0.3.5.7:
Tor 0.3.5.7 is the first stable release in its series; it includes
compilation and portability fixes, and a fix for a severe problem
affecting directory caches.
The Tor 0.3.5 series includes several new features and performance
improvements, including client authorization for v3 onion services,
cleanups to bootstrap reporting, support for improved bandwidth-
measurement tools, experimental support for NSS in place of OpenSSL,
and much more. It also begins a full reorganization of Tor's code
layout, for improved modularity and maintainability in the future.
Finally, there is the usual set of performance improvements and
bugfixes that we try to do in every release series.
There are a couple of changes in the 0.3.5 that may affect
compatibility. First, the default version for newly created onion
services is now v3. Use the HiddenServiceVersion option if you want to
override this. Second, some log messages related to bootstrapping have
changed; if you use stem, you may need to update to the latest version
so it will recognize them.
We have designated 0.3.5 as a "long-term support" (LTS) series: we
will continue to patch major bugs in typical configurations of 0.3.5
until at least 1 Feb 2022. (We do not plan to provide long-term
support for embedding, Rust support, NSS support, running a directory
authority, or unsupported platforms. For these, you will need to stick
with the latest stable release.)

Log message:
tor: updated to 0.3.5.8
Changes in version 0.3.5.8:
Tor 0.3.5.8 backports serveral fixes from later releases, including fixes
for an annoying SOCKS-parsing bug that affected users in earlier 0.3.5.x
releases.
It also includes a fix for a medium-severity security bug affecting Tor
0.3.2.1-alpha and later. All Tor instances running an affected release
should upgrade to 0.3.3.12, 0.3.4.11, 0.3.5.8, or 0.4.0.2-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (cell scheduler, KIST, security):
- Make KIST consider the outbuf length when computing what it can
put in the outbuf. Previously, KIST acted as though the outbuf
were empty, which could lead to the outbuf becoming too full. It
is possible that an attacker could exploit this bug to cause a Tor
client or relay to run out of memory and crash. Fixes bug 29168;
bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha. This issue is also being tracked as
TROVE-2019-001 and CVE-2019-8955.
o Major bugfixes (networking, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- Gracefully handle empty username/password fields in SOCKS5
username/password auth messsage and allow SOCKS5 handshake to
continue. Previously, we had rejected these handshakes, breaking
certain applications. Fixes bug 29175; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
o Minor features (compilation, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- Compile correctly when OpenSSL is built with engine support
disabled, or with deprecated APIs disabled. Closes ticket 29026.
Patches from "Mangix".
o Minor features (geoip):
- Update geoip and geoip6 to the February 5 2019 Maxmind GeoLite2
Country database. Closes ticket 29478.
o Minor features (testing, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- Treat all unexpected ERR and BUG messages as test failures. Closes
ticket 28668.
o Minor bugfixes (onion service v3, client, backport from 0.4.0.1-alpha):
- Stop logging a "BUG()" warning and stacktrace when we find a SOCKS
connection waiting for a descriptor that we actually have in the
cache. It turns out that this can actually happen, though it is
rare. Now, tor will recover and retry the descriptor. Fixes bug
28669; bugfix on 0.3.2.4-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (IPv6, backport from 0.4.0.1-alpha):
- Fix tor_ersatz_socketpair on IPv6-only systems. Previously, the
IPv6 socket was bound using an address family of AF_INET instead
of AF_INET6. Fixes bug 28995; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. Patch from
Kris Katterjohn.
o Minor bugfixes (build, compatibility, rust, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- Update Cargo.lock file to match the version made by the latest
version of Rust, so that "make distcheck" will pass again. Fixes
bug 29244; bugfix on 0.3.3.4-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (client, clock skew, backport from 0.4.0.1-alpha):
- Select guards even if the consensus has expired, as long as the
consensus is still reasonably live. Fixes bug 24661; bugfix
on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.4.0.1-alpha):
- Compile correctly on OpenBSD; previously, we were missing some
headers required in order to detect it properly. Fixes bug 28938;
bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. Patch from Kris Katterjohn.terjohn.
o Minor bugfixes (documentation, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- Describe the contents of the v3 onion service client authorization
files correctly: They hold public keys, not private keys. Fixes
bug 28979; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. Spotted by "Felixix".
o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.4.0.1-alpha):
- Rework rep_hist_log_link_protocol_counts() to iterate through all
link protocol versions when logging incoming/outgoing connection
counts. Tor no longer skips version 5, and we won't have to
remember to update this function when new link protocol version is
developed. Fixes bug 28920; bugfix on 0.2.6.10.
o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- Log more information at "warning" level when unable to read a
private key; log more information at "info" level when unable to
read a public key. We had warnings here before, but they were lost
during our NSS work. Fixes bug 29042; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (misc, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- The amount of total available physical memory is now determined
using the sysctl identifier HW_PHYSMEM (rather than HW_USERMEM)
when it is defined and a 64-bit variant is not available. Fixes
bug 28981; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha. Patch from Kris Katterjohn.
o Minor bugfixes (onion services, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- Avoid crashing if ClientOnionAuthDir (incorrectly) contains more
than one private key for a hidden service. Fixes bug 29040; bugfix
on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
- In hs_cache_store_as_client() log an HSDesc we failed to parse at
"debug" level. Tor used to log it as a warning, which caused very
long log lines to appear for some users. Fixes bug 29135; bugfix
on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
- Stop logging "Tried to establish rendezvous on non-OR circuit..."
as a warning. Instead, log it as a protocol warning, because there
is nothing that relay operators can do to fix it. Fixes bug 29029;
bugfix on 0.2.5.7-rc.on 0.2.5.7-rc.
o Minor bugfixes (tests, directory clients, backport from 0.4.0.1-alpha):
- Mark outdated dirservers when Tor only has a reasonably live
consensus. Fixes bug 28569; bugfix on 0.3.2.5-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (tests, backport from 0.4.0.2-alpha):
- Detect and suppress "bug" warnings from the util/time test on
Windows. Fixes bug 29161; bugfix on 0.2.9.3-alpha.
- Do not log an error-level message if we fail to find an IPv6
network interface from the unit tests. Fixes bug 29160; bugfix
on 0.2.7.3-rc.
o Minor bugfixes (usability, backport from 0.4.0.1-alpha):
- Stop saying "Your Guard ..." in pathbias_measure_{use,close}_rate().
Some users took this phrasing to mean that the mentioned guard was
under their control or responsibility, which it is not. Fixes bug
28895; bugfix on Tor 0.3.0.1-alpha.
