Update to Tor stable 0.4.8.13 #84
Conversation
Update to Tor stable 0.4.8.13 ``` Changes in version 0.4.8.13 - 2024-10-24 This is minor release fixing an important client circuit building (Conflux related) bug which lead to performance degradation and extra load on the network. Some minor memory leaks fixes as well as an important minor feature for pluggable transports. We strongly recommend to update as soon as possible for clients in order to neutralize this conflux bug. o Major bugfixes (circuit building): - Conflux circuit building was ignoring the "predicted ports" feature, which aims to make Tor stop building circuits if there have been no user requests lately. This bug led to every idle Tor on the network building and discarding circuits every 30 seconds, which added overall load to the network, used bandwidth and battery from clients that weren't actively using their Tor, and kept sockets open on guards which added connection padding essentially forever. Fixes bug 40981; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha; o Minor feature (bridges, pluggable transport): - Add STATUS TYPE=version handler for Pluggable Transport. This allows us to gather version statistics on Pluggable Transport usage from bridge servers on our metrics portal. Closes ticket 11101. o Minor features (fallbackdir): - Regenerate fallback directories generated on October 24, 2024. o Minor features (geoip data): - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as retrieved on 2024/10/24. o Minor bugfixes (memleak, authority): - Fix a small memleak when computing a new consensus. This only affects directory authorities. Fixes bug 40966; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. o Minor bugfixes (memory): - Fix memory leaks of the CPU worker code during shutdown. Fixes bug 833; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. ```
