Tor 0.3.4.2-alpha fixes several minor bugs in the previous alpha release, and forward-ports an authority-only security fix from 0.3.3.6.
Changes in version 0.3.4.2-alpha - 2018-06-12
Directory authority changes:
Add an IPv6 address for the "dannenberg" directory authority. Closes ticket 26343.
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.

Today, we made several new stable Tor releases. Together, they fix an issue in directory authorities, and backport a feature to improve relays' resistance of denial-of-service attacks. In addition, the 0.3.2.10 release fixes a security bug affecting relays running earlier 0.3.2.x versions.

Remember, this is an alpha release: you should only run this if you'd like to find and report more bugs than usual.
Tor 0.3.3.2-alpha is the second alpha in the 0.3.3.x series. It introduces a mechanism to handle the high loads that many relay operators have been reporting recently. It also fixes several bugs in older releases. If this new code proves reliable, we plan to backport it to older supported release series.
