a preliminary changelog for 0.1.0.8-rc

Changes in version 0.1.0.8-rc - 2005-05-23

  o Bugfixes:

    - It turns out that kqueue on OS X 10.3.9 was causing kernel

      panics. Disable kqueue on all OS X Tors.

    - Fix RPM: remove duplicate line accidentally added to the rpm

      spec file.

    - Disable threads on openbsd too, since its gethostaddr is not

      reentrant either.

    - Allow the middle hop of the testing circuit to be running any

      version, now that most of them have the bugfix to let them connect

      to unknown servers. This will allow reachability testing to work

      even when 0.0.9.7-0.0.9.9 become obsolete.

    - Handle relay cells with rh.length too large. This prevents

      a potential attack that could read arbitrary memory (maybe even

      keys) from the exit server's process.

    - We screwed up the dirport reachability testing when we don't yet

      have a cached version of the directory. Hopefully now fixed.

    - Clean up router_load_single_router() (used by the controller),

      so it doesn't seg fault on error.

    - Fix a minor memory leak when somebody establishes an introduction

      point at your Tor server.

    - If a socks connection ends because read fails, don't warn that

      you're not sending a socks reply back.

  o Features:

    - Add HttpProxyAuthenticator config option too, that works like

      the HttpsProxyAuthenticator config option.

    - Encode hashed controller passwords in hex instead of base64,

      to make it easier to write controllers.
