Описание

Tor is a toolset for a wide range of organizations and people who want to improve their safety and security on the Internet.Using Tor can help you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant messaging, IRC, SSH, and more. Tor also provides a platform on which software developers can build new applications with built-in anonymity, safety, and privacy features.By default, Tor is configured to run at startup. If you do not want Tor to run on startup, you can disable this by selecting \"Customize\" in the Installer, and then un-checking the \"Tor Startup Script\" box. Be sure to leave the other boxes checked. Once the installer is finished and your computer restarts, Tor will start automatically. Tor comes configured as a client by default. It uses a built-in default configuration file in /Library/Tor/torrc, but most people won\'t need to change any of the settings.Privoxy is installed as part of the Tor bundle package installer. Privoxy is a filtering web proxy that integrates well with Tor. Once it\'s installed, it will start automatically when your computer is restarted. You do not need to configure Privoxy to use Tor. A custom Privoxy configuration for Tor has been installed as part of the installer package.Using Privoxy is necessary because your browser leaks your DNS requests when your using a SOCKS proxy directly, which is bad for your anonymity. Privoxy also removes certain dangerous headers from your web requests, and blocks obnoxious ad sites like DoubTo test if it\'s working, you need to know your normal IP address so you can verify that the address really changes when running Tor. Your local IP address is shown by the ifconfig command. If you are behind a NAT/Firewall you can use one of the sites listed below to check which IP you are using. When that is done, start Tor and Privoxy and visit any of the sites again. If everything works, your IP address should have changed.What\'s New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]· Implement proposal 121: make it possible to build hidden services that only certain clients are allowed to connect to. This is enforced at several points, so that unauthorized clients are unable to send INTRODUCE cells to the service, or even (depending on the type of authentication) to learn introduction points. This feature raises the bar for certain kinds of active attacks against hidden services. Code by Karsten Loesing.· Relays now store and serve v2 hidden service descriptors by default, i.e., the new default value for HidServDirectoryV2 is 1. This is the last step in proposal 114, which aims to make hidden service lookups more reliable.· Start work to allow node restrictions to include country codes. The syntax to exclude nodes in a country with country code XX is \"ExcludeNodes {XX}\". Patch from Robert Hogan. It still needs some refinement to decide what config options should take priority if you ask to both use a particular node and exclude it.· Allow ExitNodes list to include IP ranges and country codes, just like the Exclude*Nodes lists. Patch from Robert Hogan.· Fix a bug when parsing ports in tor_addr_port_parse() that caused Tor to fail to start if you had it configured to use a bridge relay. Fixes bug 809. Bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha.· When extending a circuit to a hidden service directory to upload a rendezvous descriptor using a BEGIN_DIR cell, almost 1/6 of all requests failed, because the router descriptor had not been downloaded yet. In these cases, we now wait until the router descriptor is downloaded, and then retry. Likewise, clients now skip over a hidden service directory if they don\'t yet have its router descriptor, rather than futilely requesting it and putting mysterious complaints in the logs. Fixes bug 767. Bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha.· When fetching v0 and v2 rendezvous service descriptors in parallel, we were failing the whole hidden service request when the v0 descriptor fetch fails, even if the v2 fetch is still pending and might succeed. Similarly, if the last v2 fetch fails, we were failing the whole hidden service request even if a v0 fetch is still pending. Fixes bug 814. Bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha.· DNS replies need to have names matching their requests, but these names should be in the questions section, not necessarily in the answers section. Fixes bug 823. Bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha.· Update to the \"September 1 2008\" ip-to-country file.· Allow ports 465 and 587 in the default exit policy again. We had rejected them in 0.1.0.15, because back in 2005 they were commonly misconfigured and ended up as spam targets. We hear they are better locked down these days.· Use a lockfile to make sure that two Tor processes are not simultaneously running with the same datadir.· Serve the latest v3 networkstatus consensus via the control port. Use \"getinfo dir/status-vote/current/consensus\" to fetch it.· Better logging about stability/reliability calculations on directory servers.· Drop the requirement to have an open dir port for storing and serving v2 hidden service descriptors.· Directory authorities now serve a /tor/dbg-stability.txt URL to help debug WFU and MTBF calculations.· Implement most of Proposal 152: allow specialized servers to permit single-hop circuits, and clients to use those servers to build single-hop circuits when using a specialized controller. Patch from Josh Albrecht. Resolves feature request 768.· Add a -p option to tor-resolve for specifying the SOCKS port: some people find host:port too confusing.· Make TrackHostExit mappings expire a while after their last use, not after their creation. Patch from Robert Hogan.· Provide circuit purposes along with circuit events to the controller.· Fix compile on OpenBSD 4.4-current. Bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha. Reported by Tas.· Fixed some memory leaks -- some quite frequent, some almost impossible to trigger -- based on results from Coverity.· When testing for libevent functions, set the LDFLAGS variable correctly. Found by Riastradh.· Fix an assertion bug in parsing policy-related options; possible fix for bug 811.· Catch and report a few more bootstrapping failure cases when Tor fails to establish a TCP connection. Cleanup on 0.2.1.x.· Avoid a bug where the FastFirstHopPK 0 option would keep Tor from bootstrapping with tunneled directory connections. Bugfix on 0.1.2.5-alpha. Fixes bug 797. Found by Erwin Lam.· When asked to connect to A.B.exit:80, if we don\'t know the IP for A and we know that server B rejects most-but-not all connections to port 80, we would previously reject the connection. Now, we assume the user knows what they were asking for. Fixes bug 752. Bugfix on 0.0.9rc5. Diagnosed by BarkerJr.· If we are not using BEGIN_DIR cells, don\'t attempt to contact hidden service directories if they have no advertised dir port. Bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha.· If we overrun our per-second write limits a little, count this as having used up our write allocation for the second, and choke outgoing directory writes. Previously, we had only counted this when we had met our limits precisely. Fixes bug 824. Patch from by rovv. Bugfix on 0.2.0.x (??).· Avoid a \"0 divided by 0\" calculation when calculating router uptime at directory authorities. Bugfix on 0.2.0.8-alpha.· Make DNS resolved controller events into \"CLOSED\", not \"FAILED\". Bugfix on 0.1.2.5-alpha. Fix by Robert Hogan. Resolves bug 807.· Fix a bug where an unreachable relay would establish enough reachability testing circuits to do a bandwidth test -- if we already have a connection to the middle hop of the testing circuit, then it could establish the last hop by using the existing connection. Bugfix on 0.1.2.2-alpha, exposed when we made testing circuits no longer use entry guards in 0.2.1.3-alpha.· If we have correct permissions on $datadir, we complain to stdout and fail to start. But dangerous permissions on $datadir/cached-status/ would cause us to open a log and complain there. Now complain to stdout and fail to start in both cases. Fixes bug 820, reported by seeess.· Remove the old v2 directory authority \'lefkada\' from the default list. It has been gone for many months.· Revise the connection_new functions so that a more typesafe variant exists. This will work better with Coverity, and let us find any actual mistakes we\'re making here.· Refactor unit testing logic so that dmalloc can be used sensibly with unit tests to check for memory leaks.· Move all hidden-service related fields from connection and circuit structure to substructures: this way they won\'t eat so much memory.
