New releases

On August 4, we released Tor Browser Bundle 1.2.7. It is updated primarily due to Firefox 3.0.13 with its ssl fixes.

The full changelist is:
1.2.7: Released 2009-08-04

• update Firefox to 3.0.13
• add Polish translation
• update libevent to 1.4.12

On August 19, we released Tor Browser Bundle 1.2.8. The big changes are the inclusion of statically linked openssl dlls to resolve a few geoip lookup and functionality issues with Vidalia, and the upgrade to the new Vidalia 0.2.2.

The full list of updates and fixes: read more »

• update Torbutton to 1.2.2
• update Vidalia to 0.2.2
• compile OpenSSL 0.9.8k with Visual C to make dlls
• update Pidgin to 2.6.1

By popular request, we've created http://archive.torproject.org/. It serves as an archive of all released versions of Tor since 2004. And as a repository of all relay descriptors and directory authority consensus files published since 2004.

This is the place to get current and past releases of:

• the Tor source code,
• Vidalia itself,
• vidalia bundles for Microsoft Windows and Apple OS X,
• our various rpm packages,
• the Tor Browser Bundle and Tor IM Browser Bundle,
• TorVM,
• published consensus files,
• published server descriptors,
• and, other Tor network related files like extra-info and statuses.

The files are offered via http://archive.torproject.org/, rsync (archive.torproject.org::), and hidden service, http://7ofilo7lqgiub36u.onion.

The package archive is around 20GB. The directory authority archive is around 23GB. We'll soon be listing mirrors of this site as well.

Enjoy.

Censorship circumvention

Packaged rpms for Red Flag Linux version 6. Red Flag Linux is reported to be the new operating system for all Internet cafe's in China. So far, no one has seen this conversion actually happen, but now we're ready if it does.

Our email autoresponder, gettor , received a number of patches to deal with dkim issues, including finding a dkim bug that prevented yahoo email users from fetching Tor. This bug has been fixed. Additionally, we've whitelisted some domains where we read more »

New releases, new hires, new funding

Tor 0.2.1.10-alpha (released January 6) fixes two major bugs in bridge
relays (one that would make the bridge relay not so useful if it had
DirPort set to 0, and one that could let an attacker learn a little bit
of information about the bridge's users), and a bug that would cause your
Tor relay to ignore a circuit create request it can't decrypt (rather
than reply with an error). It also fixes a wide variety of other bugs.

Tor 0.2.1.11-alpha (released Jan 20) finishes fixing the "if your Tor is
off for a week it will take a long time to bootstrap again" bug. It also
fixes an important security-related bug reported by Ilja van Sprundel. You
should upgrade. (We'll send out more details about the bug once people
have had some time to upgrade.)

Releases

Vidalia 0.1.7 (released August 2) fixes a bug that caused Vidalia to not recognize Tor's version correctly in Tor 0.2.0.x, adds an "nsh2po" tool that helps Pootle translate the Vidalia bundle installer strings, adds "TZ=UTC" to the BrowserExecutable's environment variables when launched via Vidalia, and updates the Czech, French, and German translations.

Incognito 2008.1 (released August 2) is a Gentoo-based Tor LiveCD. This new release adds a "walkthrough" which will launch on startup; adds language support for Arabic, Green, Hebrew, Russian, and Swedish; improves the support for Chinese and Japanese fonts; adds support for VMWare and partial support for VirtualBox; switches to Tor 0.2.0.30 and Torbutton 1.2.0; and adds some new privacy-supporting software and removes some applications that are too likely to leak private information.

Tor 0.2.1.3-alpha (released August 3) implements most of the pieces to prevent infinite-length circuit attacks (see proposal 110); fixes a bug that might cause exit relays to corrupt streams they send back; allows address patterns (e.g. 255.128.0.0/16) to appear in ExcludeNodes and ExcludeExitNodes config options; and fixes a big pile of bugs.

Tor Browser Bundle 1.1.2 (released August 9) updates Vidalia to version 0.1.6, updates Firefox to 2.0.0.16, updates Tor to 0.2.1.4-alpha, updates Torbutton to 1.2.0, and disables the TZ=UTC environment variable trick since Vidalia 0.1.7 now handles that for us.
