tor does not report incoming connections if ORPort set to listen on specific adapter
Summary
If ORPort is set to listen on a specific adapter, incoming connections are not reported through the control port.
Steps to reproduce:
- Specify a specific bind address with the format ORPort [address]:[port]
- Use nyx to verify there are no reported incoming connections
- Use python relay connection count script to verify there are no reported incoming connections
What is the current bug behavior?
Specifying an ORPort bind address prevents reporting of incoming connection counts and details
What is the expected behavior?
Reporting tools connecting to tor control port should receive correct incoming connection counts and details
Environment
- tor version 0.4.8.13.
- Debian GNU/Linux 12.8
- Distribution package from tor project
