  • Major bugfixes (security, directory authority, denial-of-service, also in 0.3.3.6):
    • Fix a bug that could have allowed an attacker to force a directory authority to use up all its RAM by passing it a maliciously crafted protocol versions string. Fixes bug 25517; bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha. This issue is also tracked as TROVE-2018-005.
