[Bug 1731698] Re: [SRU] Tor 0.2.9.13 and 0.3.0.12

 

Sorry about the delay. I've added the tasks for Xenial and Artful. We're
going to ignore Zesty due to its EOL.

@Simon are you planning on bumping those to the releases that have been
released since?

If so, I'll wait a bit before uploading those, if not, let me know and
I'll upload those.

Title:
  [SRU] Tor 0.2.9.13 and 0.3.0.12

Status in tor package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in tor source package in Xenial:
  Triaged
Status in tor source package in Artful:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Micro versions of Tor were recently released to address some security
  problems (CVE-2017-0380/TROVE-2017-008) and crashes. The new releases
  also include directory authority changes.

  [Test Case]

  1) Setup Tor:
  $ sudo apt-get install tor

  2) Check if the Tor network is usable:
  $ torsocks wget -qO - https://ifconfig.co
  192.0.2.1

  3) Check that the IP returned by https://ifconfig.co is NOT the one
     assigned by you ISP.

  4) If you got a different IP it means wget used the Tor network
  successfully

  5) Repeat with the -proposed package

  
  [Regression Potential]

  Unfortunately, I don't know what regression could be introduced by
  those micro version upgrades (0.2.9.11->0.2.9.13 and
  0.3.0.10->0.3.0.12). Debian shipped 0.2.9.12 some time ago and I
  didn't find any regression in their bug tracker. Unfortunately, Debian
  no longer ship the 0.3.0.x branch as they moved to 0.3.1.x so the
  version in Artful saw less "in the wild" testing.

  I also looked at the upstream bug tracker and didn't find any relevant
  regression introduced by those new versions.
