Advanced Onion Router 0.3.0.9 description
Advanced Onion Router is designed to be a client for OR network and intended to be an improved alternative for Tor+Vidalia+Privoxy bundle for Windows users. It is able to "force" a program and its plugins to use the Tor proxy regardless of its configured proxy settings.
Onion Routing is a distributed overlay network designed to anonymize TCP-based applications like web browsing, secure shell, and instant messaging. Clients choose a path through the network and build a circuit, in which each node (or “onion router” or “OR”) in the path knows its predecessor and successor, but no other nodes in the circuit. Traffic flows down the circuit in fixed-size cells, which are unwrapped by a
symmetric key at each node (like the layers of an onion) and relayed downstream.
What's New in This Release:
· [tor-0.2.2.35] Change IP address for maatuska (v3 directory authority).
· [tor-0.2.2.35] Change IP address for ides (v3 directory authority), and rename it to turtles.
· [tor-0.2.2.35] When building or running with any version of OpenSSL earlier than 0.9.8s or 1.0.0f, disable SSLv3 support. These OpenSSL versions have a bug (CVE-2011-4576) in which their block cipher padding includes uninitialized data, potentially leaking sensitive information to any peer with whom they make a SSLv3 connection. Tor does not use SSL v3 by default, but a hostile client or server could force an SSLv3 connection in order to gain information that they shouldn't have been able to get. The best solution here is to upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.8s or 1.0.0f (or later). But when building or running with a non-upgraded OpenSSL, we disable SSLv3 entirely to make sure that the bug can't happen.
· [tor-0.2.2.35] Never use a bridge or a controller-supplied node as an exit, even if its exit policy allows it. Found by wanosk...
