Changes in version 0.2.4.26 - 2015-03-17

  Tor 0.2.4.26 includes an updated list of directory authorities.  It

  also backports a couple of stability and security bugfixes from 0.2.5

  and beyond.

  o Directory authority changes:

    - Remove turtles as a directory authority.

    - Add longclaw as a new (v3) directory authority. This implements

      ticket 13296. This keeps the directory authority count at 9.

    - The directory authority Faravahar has a new IP address. This

      closes ticket 14487.

  o Major bugfixes (exit node stability, also in 0.2.6.3-alpha):

    - Fix an assertion failure that could occur under high DNS load.

      Fixes bug 14129; bugfix on Tor 0.0.7rc1. Found by "jowr";

      diagnosed and fixed by "cypherpunks".

  o Major bugfixes (relay, stability, possible security, also in 0.2.6.4-rc):

    - Fix a bug that could lead to a relay crashing with an assertion

      failure if a buffer of exactly the wrong layout was passed to

      buf_pullup() at exactly the wrong time. Fixes bug 15083; bugfix on

      0.2.0.10-alpha. Patch from 'cypherpunks'.

    - Do not assert if the 'data' pointer on a buffer is advanced to the

      very end of the buffer; log a BUG message instead. Only assert if

      it is past that point. Fixes bug 15083; bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha.

  o Minor features (geoip):

    - Update geoip to the March 3 2015 Maxmind GeoLite2 Country database.

    - Update geoip6 to the March 3 2015 Maxmind GeoLite2

      Country database.

Changes in version 0.2.4.25 - 2014-10-20

  Tor 0.2.4.25 disables SSL3 in response to the recent "POODLE" attack

  (even though POODLE does not affect Tor). It also works around a crash
