+Changes in version 0.4.4.6 - 2020-11-12
+  Tor 0.4.4.6 is the second stable release in the 0.4.4.x series. It
+  backports fixes from later releases, including a fix for TROVE-2020-
+  005, a security issue that could be used, under certain cases, by an
+  adversary to observe traffic patterns on a limited number of circuits
+  intended for a different relay.
+
+  o Major bugfixes (security, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+    - When completing a channel, relays now check more thoroughly to
+      make sure that it matches any pending circuits before attaching
+      those circuits. Previously, address correctness and Ed25519
+      identities were not checked in this case, but only when extending
+      circuits on an existing channel. Fixes bug 40080; bugfix on
+      0.2.7.2-alpha. Resolves TROVE-2020-005.
+
+  o Minor features (directory authorities, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+    - Authorities now list a different set of protocols as required and
+      recommended. These lists have been chosen so that only truly
+      recommended and/or required protocols are included, and so that
+      clients using 0.2.9 or later will continue to work (even though
+      they are not supported), whereas only relays running 0.3.5 or
+      later will meet the requirements. Closes ticket 40162.
+    - Make it possible to specify multiple ConsensusParams torrc lines.
+      Now directory authority operators can for example put the main
+      ConsensusParams config in one torrc file and then add to it from a
+      different torrc file. Closes ticket 40164.
+
+  o Minor features (subprotocol versions, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+    - Tor no longer allows subprotocol versions larger than 63.
+      Previously version numbers up to UINT32_MAX were allowed, which
+      significantly complicated our code. Implements proposal 318;
+      closes ticket 40133.
+
+  o Minor features (tests, v2 onion services, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+    - Fix a rendezvous cache unit test that was triggering an underflow
+      on the global rend cache allocation. Fixes bug 40125; bugfix
+      on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
+    - Fix another rendezvous cache unit test that was triggering an
+      underflow on the global rend cache allocation. Fixes bug 40126;
+      bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+    - Fix compiler warnings that would occur when building with
+      "--enable-all-bugs-are-fatal" and "--disable-module-relay" at the
+      same time. Fixes bug 40129; bugfix on 0.4.4.1-alpha.
+    - Resolve a compilation warning that could occur in
+      test_connection.c. Fixes bug 40113; bugfix on 0.2.9.3-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+    - Remove a debug logging statement that uselessly spammed the logs.
+      Fixes bug 40135; bugfix on 0.3.5.0-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (relay configuration, crash, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+    - Avoid a fatal assert() when failing to create a listener
+      connection for an address that was in use. Fixes bug 40073; bugfix
+      on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (v2 onion services, backport from 0.4.5.1-alpha):
+    - For HSFETCH commands on v2 onion services addresses, check the
+      length of bytes decoded, not the base32 length. Fixes bug 34400;
+      bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha. Patch by Neel Chauhan.
