Greetings!
Today I'm happy to announce a new era in Tor implementation.
Over the past year or so, we've been working on "Arti", a project to rewrite Tor in Rust. Thanks to funding from Zcash Open Major Grants (ZOMG), we can finally put the Arti project up in our priorities list, and devote more time to it.
Below I'll talk about why we're doing this project, what it means for Tor users and operators, where it's going in the future, and how people can help.
We have a new stable release today. If you build Tor from source, you can download the source...
After months of work, we have a new stable release series! If you build Tor from source, you can download the source code for 0.4.6.5 on the download page. Packages should be available within the next several weeks, with a new Tor Browser around the end of the week.
Because this release includes security fixes, we are also releasing updates for our other supported releases. You can find their source at https://oiyfgiixvl.tudasnich.de:
Tor 0.4.6.5 is the first stable release in its series. The 0.4.6.x series includes numerous features and bugfixes, including a significant improvement to our circuit timeout algorithm that should improve observed client performance, and a way for relays to report when they are overloaded.
This release also includes security fixes for several security issues, including a denial-of-service attack against onion service clients, and another denial-of-service attack against relays. Everybody should upgrade to one of 0.3.5.15, 0.4.4.9, 0.4.5.9, or 0.4.6.5.
Below are the changes since 0.4.5.8. For a list of changes since 0.4.6.4-rc, see the ChangeLog file.
There's a new release candidate available for download. If you build Tor from source, you can download the source code for 0.4.6.4-rc from the download page on the website. Packages should be available over the coming weeks, with a new alpha Tor Browser release likely next week.
Remember, this is a not a stable release yet: but we still hope that people will try it out and look for bugs before the official stable release comes out in June.
Tor 0.4.6.4-rc fixes a few bugs from previous releases. This, we hope, the final release candidate in its series: unless major new issues are found, the next release will be stable.
